@starbreaker I've seen the latest beta for Thunderbird (115 if I recall correctly) and noticed a huge change in design. Yet, it has things that trigger me.

Mailmate seems cool, with nice features and all (markdown, also). However, I cringe at the idea of paying $60 for an email client, especially now.

Does anyone use Mailmate on #macOS? #askFedi

some people may not realise this, but

some of us run away from meta and the rest of big tech to the fediverse communities where we have the right of association and tools to exercise it

some of us really don't want near that profit-before-people e-corp which has too often clearly proved how incapable of basic human ethics they are

i wouldn't touch them with a stick tbh

@tommi brilliant!
@vkc very sorry you had to deal with this.
@starbreaker thanks. I'll think about it.
@starbreaker thanks, sounds appealing. Is there a how-to for migrating from Mastodon? I hadn't noticed one on Friendica, but I only skimmed their help pages so far.

@machias maybe it's because I'm approaching my mid 50s, but I definitely get what you mean.

@chris

@chris I'm not sure if it's something that naturally comes as we age but I've been feeling the same for a while now. Not that I think too much of birthdays anyway...

Talking about 1st-world problems, now that I'm back (for now) from the UK, it's time to think about switching instance. I've been mulling over two musicians-tailored nice instances, however, I just realised that I'm not forced to stay here.

Either Frendica or Diaspora could serve me well, they're part of the Fediverse, they both use ActivityPub as far as I know, so what's the point of being stuck with Mastodon?

@starbreaker since you recently made that switch, how do you feel about Friendica?
