Tuta is an excellent alternative.

Fastmail is what I use for my day to day mail. If you’re concerned about it being subject to Australian privacy laws, check out Startmail.

Mailbox.org is very good but some may find it overly complex.

It’s old, but still entirely factual:

Make sure you’re also blocking all other outbound DNS at your firewall. Many “smart” devices (and presumably some apps, though I have no way to check this) are hard coded to use 8.8.8.8 regardless of what DCHP says to use.

I am 110% in favor of breaking the two party stranglehold. It’s long overdue. It needs to end yesterday.

But holy fuck, this is LITERALLY THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME to vote third party. I read here and on Reddit that people are promising to vote third party because Biden personally hasn’t solved the middle east conflict or whatever, but doing that in the presidential election amounts to screaming “fuck yeah I love Trump and everything he stands for”.

Vote Biden or vote Trump. There is no third choice because every other option is a vote for Trump.

I’m a moderate. I tend to take a lot of what I read online with a grain of salt (as everyone should, but you know how that goes).

A few months ago I decided to try X again and see for myself. I thought “what is this is just exaggerated hysterics, and the site really isn’t that bad.”

No. It’s not exaggerated. It’s not hysterics. X / Twitter really is that bad of a dumpster fire. You can say “I don’t like Nazis” and a billion bots will accuse you of being a woke radical leftist.

Sold my well-aged account to a scammer, haven’t looked back.

You think I’m jumping through mental hoops for telling people to use an ad blocker?

I had a Philips Dreamstation that was recalled. I’m not sure exactly what happened but I started having an issue where I would feel extreme euphoria at random times throughout the day when I inhaled. It only happened when I used the Dreamstation. If I used my travel CPAP or my replacement Airsense, I had no problems.

I saw my PCP about it and we never figured it out. And again, it stopped when I switched devices.

I don’t know what gases were being released but there’s got to be a correlation.

Which will remove yet another barrier to Trump becoming president.

I’m all for breaking the two-party stranglehold but do it in a local election where it will make a difference. This year is the absolute worst year to try a failed presidential run.

That’s nice. They’ll lose, and the momentum put to that independent candidate is momentum that could have been used against Trump. Voting for either of them is a vote for “I am not interested in what happens in this country, and sincerely hope Trump wins. Because instead of voting against him, instead I choose to throw away my vote by making some kind of ‘statement’ that will never be heard by anyone.”

It absolutely is. You’re removing a vote that could have been used to stop Trump and throwing it into a candidate who will not win. You are, quite literally saying, “I am completely fine with another Trump presidency”.
