I see it as an option for when you're one someone else's system lol, some people stare into that light. Also if I'm logged in I expect it to save my preference to my acct but some sites don't (like youtube)

seems like it was channeling the internet as it memed itself in crisis

thnx, very convoluted but good to know, though I imagine those generated alias names would get ignored or garbage collected with any serious use like job applications

Notepad isn't used for note taking or writing, it's the default choice to quickly open any file that contains text for a look or edit, or to jot down temporary text, it was perfect for its use case and preinstalled in Windows since forever. Now it's getting slower, clunkier, less private/secure

I mentioned in the thread that Mail doesn't have free aliases (diff addresses you can send and receive with), and ProtonPass's aliases are only forwarding aliases, you can't send with them.

Bookmarks, I find discovering good posts feels bad when I can't easily save for reference later, major reason I still use some other platforms

Drafts, at least as a fallback for when these apps kick you out of the editor

that's a workaround for the lack of a feature all the alternatives have. Bookmarks are a personal list easily accessible from your profile, not at all like publicly cluttering threads with emojis

I think ls.graphics is awesome and they have a great mockup plugin for Figma (with decent freebies).

Fonts are all over the place, I like to find foundries I like. Would check fontshare.com, youworkforthem.com, creativemarket

I was sorta convinced by a friend that the value of the hype is in attracting investment of money, time and skill to the AI industry which ultimately helps other industries (medical, climate science, edu etc), but the corporate circle jerk is something else.

The thing I don't get is this sense of urgency to get in on the action for a tech whose purpose is to be accessible and easy to use, and whose ecosystem is rapidly changing every year. I think it's great to experiment and build out the ecosystem but the general vision is very murky.

We can only use some forwarding aliases from ProtonPass (awesome manager). Mail feels too important to risk losing access to it the moment a sub is paused, so still using what works.
May 29, 2025 at 11:31 PM
I want to use it more, but the main idea of ProtonMail is not to give out your main email and to use an alias, and not even having a single alias available for free makes it hard to use or recommend, while mainstream ones do.

Then, was hoping for freehand vector painting but it's still something lost in Illustrator it seems

seems possible via Figma Make (AI tool) or Figma Sites, though that would be cool.
In Figma Design that would be two flows, manually typing doesn't usually add to a mockup prototype

I miss the twitter Verge account where the post caption was creative and different from the article title, so I don't feel like an idiot reading both every single time lol

ya, the old ones are pretty genius minimal designs IMO, especially outlook, new ones look too quirky or something.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.
