Gmail quietly drops forwarded mails sometimes. They don't put them into the spam directory, either.

With IMAP i need to run a mail server that stores my mails forever, right? I want to "import" a copy into Gmail and delete it on the original server.

Is there any solution that does not require me to run my own email server?

I have a 2GB email server. I use POP to regularly import the mails into Gmail. This deletes the mails on my limited-storage-server.

I already pay for Google storage. I do not want to pay (more) for another email server just so I can keep all my emails forever.

Forwarding mails does not work, because Gmail quietly drops mails. They don't even put them into the spam folder.

My webhoster told me I could pay for Google Workspace. There you apparently can use your own domain. But then I have a third service I have to pay.

Thanks for the clarification. Looking forward to see your solutions to the constraint problems.

Very cool, I'm working on something similar!

Naturally I have some questions:

1. I don't see any examples for foreign key constraints (ON DELETE and ON UPDATE) or UNIQUE constraints. Are constraints still supported? 2. How is row-level privacy implemented? Are "forbidden" rows not synced by the server logic, or are they encrypted?

I did this too, but then YouTube translated videos in my native language to English.

Please do! There are too few current articles about CRDTs around!

Google Photos also sometimes promotes a printing service. I forgot about that.

I don't see any ads on the mentioned apps on my Pixel phone.

I do have ads in the Play Store app and in the Gmail app, though.

I'm integrating daily steps walked into my workout/nutrition tracking app EverBeat for Android. I've noticed that this is an important metric for many people interested in losing some weight.

I estimate burned calories on the minute-to-minute level for all activities, which is a fun challenge.

For the steps to calories conversion, I require time and distance walked. Unfortunately it's surprisingly difficult to get some kind of distance information from Android. Google Fit API provides this data, but will be killed soon. The RecordingAPI will hopefully provide this in the future, but not yet...

Great Landingpage! Inspired by Pieter Levels?

It's not. Google Fit uploaded everything to the cloud, but Google Health Connect keeps the data on the device.

> I have a Renpho scale, the way it works for me is that when I step on the scale it turns it on and connects to my device via bluetooth which wakes the app. The weight is captured and synced in the background to both the Renpho cloud service as well as the local Health Connect.

I bought a Wifi scale specifically so I don't have to have my phone with bluetooth on, nearby. Does the BT-connection open the app itself, or just initiate a sync in a background service? I was under the impression that it is impossible to access Google Health Connect in the background – I get access-errors in my log when I start my own app from the IDE while the screen is off.

> [...] they get a lot of write storage to health connect for free from the API

Is this really an issue that is solved by using Google Health Connect?

You are right, I edited my original post accordingly.
