Agreed, and I do plan to move to other providers. I should add that I find a desktop client convenient, and I don't mind the Thunderbird UI at the moment. Unfortunately, lack of a single feature breaks it for me

Never heard of it, will take a look thanks

I'd prefer not to go to their Web UIs because of how much tracking is present on those sites (adding rules and filters to ublock origin for Gmail nearly killed me). I'd prefer a FOSS option.

Yes but I can't search by the name of the attachment. Unfortunately that's a deal breaker for me. I need it to search the Content-Type field at the very least and I don't think it can do that without an extension

How hard is it to just use a decent license like AGPL???

I use Debian with XFCE but I don't game

Please make this into a blog post or at least a separate post. Fantastic writeup

Install Pop OS and let System 76 worry about Nvidia drivers

Debian with XFCE here - I do just have a single monitor though so I suppose I'm not running into complicated display issues anytime soon. It has been extremely solid, I forget to update my system for months on end and then remember to do it one day and it just works. XFCE is boring like Debian but that's why I like it: it stays out of my way.

I work on RHEL at my day job so Linux isn't just a hobby for me, and I love being free from Windows. Honestly the only thing I keep a windows VM around for is an installation of Adobe Acrobat PDF reader because I'm too lazy to set up signatures on Linux since I don't sign that many documents anyway. And maybe a couple of windows servers from a few keys I've got lying around to learn AD on.

 

I have been looking for an email client on Linux after being tired of Gmail and Outlook web clients.

I had Thunderbird installed on my system and thought I'd give it a spin. I set up POP for my email accounts and it worked fantastic... For a total of 2 hours, after which I realised that searching in Thunderbird is simply not going to work for me. I need to search by attachment name and sometimes even by text inside attachment and unfortunately Thunderbird can't do that (I think I tried an extension too but it made the UI super clunky to the point that I couldn't even understand how to navigate it anymore).

Does Betterbird or any other email client fix this problem? I'm willing to try other options if they are FOSS.

Thanks

Could you explain what you mean by a custom log function?

Agreed, but Mozilla now sells your data. And they're investing in useless rubbish (FOR THE LAST TIME I DON'T WANT AI IN MY BROWSER) and paying their CEO millions whilst their developers aren't getting much of the pie.

 

Hi, I'm running Debian with XFCE. I can't seem to bind the Windows key to the "Whisker Menu". I think I'm getting the name of the applet wrong, can someone tell me what the correct name is so I can create a new binding? Thanks

 

Hi,

I have realised that my understanding of DNS isn't very good, and that there are many new technologies being adopted by mainstream FOSS applications which augment DNS from how we traditionally know it (DNSCrypt, DANE etc).

I'm looking for a resource (blog, RSS feed) which talks about a lot about DNS and innovations happening in this space. If you have any recommendations, please let me know.

My interest lies mostly in DNS tech which is being adopted by FOSS server and client applications.
