Yeah, I fell into that rabbit hole once. Tried all abuse channels that I could find. network-abuse@ refers you to the Google Cloud abuse form. They ‘are not able to take action on this report since the IP mentioned in the report is not hosted on Google Cloud.’ Gmail abuse doesn’t even bother to reply (why should they, it’s not about Gmail after all). In the end, I just blocked DKIM identifiers related to Firebase via Rspamd.

Great post. Very minor nitpick: ‘The small element must not be used for subheadings; for that purpose, use the hgroup element.’
‘The small element represents side comments such as small print. Small print typically features disclaimers, caveats, legal restrictions, or copyrights. Small print is also sometimes used for attribution, or for satisfying licensing requirements.’

When I need a refresher on the basics of Python, I refer to Python Distilled, and when I want a deep dive, I turn to Fluent Python. Reading these books makes me feel like I'm sitting next to an experienced, witty colleague.
I will take a look at Python Crash Course.

One upside of this reimplementation is that we can now enjoy state-of-the-art Electron-level loading times when opening a new Explorer window. /s

There are, of course, web email services that purport to encrypt messages. But they store encryption keys (or code and data sufficient to derive them). These systems obviously don’t work, as anyone with an account on Ladar Levison’s Lavabit mail service hopefully learned. The popularity of “encrypted” web mail services is further evidence of encrypted email’s real role as a LARPing tool.
(Actually, eat vegetarian. It’s good for you and good for the planet.)
