For those of you who have been using Proton Mail for a year or longer, how reliable have you found it? Have you encountered any instances where websites didn't accept or didn't deliver to you Proton email address? Have you ever had trouble accessing Proton Mail while travelling?

I'm looking to try some of the Proton services soon, so I'd appreciate some honest experience from real users. Thanks!

I’ve used lemmy_migrate in the past and it’s good for one-way copy. I’ve also seen lasim, but I haven’t tried it. You may find other options on awesome-lemmy.

What is the frequency indicator on the right side of your system panel?

But why would you need to disable mobile data when you enable WiFi? WiFi is automatically preferred, so having the mobile data toggle on or off doesn't matter while connected to WiFi.

I used to follow the OnePlus magazine on the old site. I can't remember the last time I read something good a OnePlus user said about their phone.

PairDrop is an improved version of SnapDrop that works both locally and over the Internet. I've found it more reliable to set up.

 

On my Android phone, switching away from Liftoff to another app usually causes it to unload. So, when I switch back, it loses the scrolling position I had left, which means I have to start again at the top. Other apps on my phone don't do this, and apps used before Liftoff don't get unloaded, so I don't think this is a memory usage issue.

Has anyone else noticed the same?

Use opusenc directly. It preserves covers and the CLI is literally opusenc --bitrate B INPUT OUTPUT.

It is also sometimes annoying when you try to crop the margin of a photo and the cropping area overlaps with the back gesture trigger area. But for me gestures win every time because the back gesture, which is the most common of the 3 operations, is available anywhere my thumb currently is, not just on the bottom edge of the screen.

Not surprising. The quality of their articles is usually mediocre at best. I occasionally look at their RSS feed and most of what I see is “How do I achieve ”–style posts.

Thanks, that's useful to know, especially regarding the paid vs free version. I may get the trial to see how it does, then consider getting a license.

I can't comment on zypper, but I suggest you use dnf -C when searching for packages. This will use the local index cache and will skip some of the overhead or checking—and possibly updating—the cache, thus making searches much quicker.

Thanks. Vivaldi has built-in support for ad blocking, too, and you can also add custom lists to it.

 

Several years ago, I used Blockada, which was frequently recommended. According to some discussion threads, it seems to have fallen from grace.

What ad blocker that doesn't require root do you use? What's your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

 

Screenshots of Boost for Lemmy included.

 

My home ISP does CGNAT for IPv4, but provides native IPv6. I can use IPv6 just fine to access most of my resources, except for one specific server. I can access the server over IPv4 from my home network, and either over v4 or v6 from other networks I've tried. But I can't access it over IPv6 from my home network.

What could be the problem here? Where do I begin to diagnose it
