On my company mail account I have collected circa 10000 mails during the past 10 years, which is circa 80 mails a month - and that is a lot.

If you’re not following multiple high-volume mailing lists since a decade and archive every single e-mail I don’t think its normal to have 50000 mails in a mailbox.

Ask them if they can give you their phone so you can check on what they’re doing online and on their phone right now. Because, why would they trust a large company more than a good friend?

Edge cases are not the norm, though.

“So, you leave your door open because locking it is useless because someone can break in?“

This is why no-one in the right mind uses Sylpheed, but the actively maintained fork Claws Mail (which just recently had a new version released).

Navigating a combination of the distro’s native package manager (apt, pacman, rpm, whatever), snap, flatpack and still having to set up the maintainers’ custom repositories to get stuff that’s even remotely up-to-date somehow

This sounds like a you problem, to be honest. If you want the most up-to-date software, just use a distribution that updates very often or uses a rolling-release concept.

The different UI toolkits, desktop environment, window manager and compositor seem to be fighting each other.

If you use one of them, not that much. If you start mixing them it becomes a huge mess. At one point in time I had Ubuntu installed, running Gnome, but having Openbox as window manager set. It was an absolute mess. Nowadays I think it’s even more of a mess, especially with gnome and this stupid Adwaita library with the stupid CSM.

But I happily ran pure Openbox on X11 for a decade and run labwc on Wayland since ca. 2 years now.

I do a lot of .NET programming and photo editing. I could probably replace VS with VScode or Ryder but it’s an additional hurdle. For photo editing, I haven’t found a single thing that fits my workflow the way Bridge, Camera Raw and Photoshop do.

Then stick with Windows. Or run this software in VM with GPU pass-through and KVM. I really don’t see an issue here. Use the tool that best fits your needs.

After seven years of active development

I wonder where they got this from. The 2.x branch was first released 21 years ago.

Why are people still accepting this?

Yeah, but it is just “fine”.

Okay, bye!

Even if you ignore the recent few fuck-ups Mozilla did: It does.

It sucks less than other non-Chromium browsers, though.

Thunderbird is the only Mozilla product that doesn’t suck!

Always has been like that.

Not one single corporation is your friend or wants to be. All they want is your money. No exceptions.

Except those who aren’t.

Can’t watch right now, but is there a list of affected devices?

Have a look at Luakit (but please don’t try to configure it – this is absurd!)

it doesn’t really suit my needs.

What are your needs?

Also: If someone manages to tamper with the downloadable ISO … they likely will be able to tamper with the signature files, too.

Mmh, okay. So I’ll continue re-downloading videos in non-HDR variants. But good to see it implemented, though.

I’m not following Linux drama, sorry.
