@protonprivacy i'm not sure why i would want to go to a password manager for my email stuff... why wouldn't the email alias management be part of the email application?

@ente really awesome to see this! i signed up and am super impressed.

curious though - why is ente auth in the same repo as photos? shouldn't they be separate since they're totally different?

@protonprivacy Are there any plans on integrating SimpleLogin further soon? I frequently want to initiate sending emails, but it's a huge PITA to do so using SimpleLogin aliases, so I just go back to Gmail a lot of the time. It's really frustrating that it's been so long since the SL acquisition but I still can't send emails easily with my main email service.
@renchap Would be really nice if this used MeiliSearch instead. ES is a memory hog and can be very complex to maintain.

If you are using #ProtonPass, we have some news for you:

🔗 Vault & password sharing is planned for later this year.
🌐 🖥️ In addition to the existing browser extensions and mobile apps, we are developing the web and desktop apps too. The web app is already in the works.

We’ve got exciting new features coming up for Proton Pass. Son Nguyen, head of the Proton Pass team, explains what you can expect.

@jhpratt I mean, it's not wrong.
Excellent work Norway.

@yosh I also understood that enums are a kind of polymorphism, and they are concrete types. However, it seems that whether they are considered polymorphic is also debated. Every explanation I've read also seems to pull some specific requirement for something to be polymorphic out of thin air.

It seemed fairly clear to me - you can have one variable represent one of possibly several different data types, just like trait objects. Are there other requirements in some formal definition somewhere?

@yosh I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here, but after half a decade of professional Rust development, I guess I don't understand what a "concrete type" is. Could you enlighten me?

Every explanation I see seems to conflict with what others say, including Stroustrup's.

The mental model I had was:
- "abstract" types and "concrete" types are opposites and mutually exclusive.
- abstract types cannot be instantiated, while concrete types can be
- generics and trait objects are abstract types

@vendetta @protonmail Can Proton comment on this? I've been dismissive of these kinds of criticisms for a while now but am also feeling like I'm starting to agree with them lately. Proton has so many paying users, why is development so slow compared to other services which I assume have far, far fewer resources?
