Fastmail! Paid service but very capable and familiar to Gmail users. Company isn't based in the US. I thought about Proton but it would essentially force me to use Proton's apps and that didn't feel great. I have a custom domain, so I didn't have to change my email address with service providers.

By far the worst thing about switching away from Gmail is the bit where you have to nudge almost 20 years of muscle memory of typing gmail.com to get to your emails out of your head. The best thing is literally everything else

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I suppose you Could consider the Greens “divisive“ in that they’re the only major party not buying in to the establishment’s normalisation of right wing bigotry and hypercapitalism

Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.

I do actually agree with the political commentators that you can’t extrapolate today’s result and assume that the greens will do well in the next general election, which is why we all need to get behind them and make damn sure the worst politicians lose their seats

Desperately hoping any non-US competition regulators do their level best to block this, but also aware that that is perhaps hoping beyond hope
