Just replied with my irks in the thread above.

I kept a list with my irks:

Search sucks: really. unable to find stuff unless you know the sender, their full text search seems to only work in a browser and only after indexing (which can take an hour) and it will go away with time as it's browser local storage.

Sending emails directly from share sheet in iOS failed twice.

Unable to add an invite to a calendar invite on iOS or in the Webapp (if invited by someone else).

Emails broken format when forwarding to someone else.

Long delay in delivering a simple email (to google and apple) at least three times.

The way that the emails are threaded. And that trash still shows as being in the same thread, instead of moving apart.

False sense of security as most emails are only encrypted on one side. And mine are visible on the other side.

Been to proton for a little less than a year. Really disliked it. It’s too locked in.

At least for the ones sent in the Netherlands, if the iPhone is in silent mode, instead of making noises, it will vibrate strongly for a full minute or so.

It does not seem to be scanning phones, but stuff uploaded to iCloud, which is completely different. The article gives the idea that your device will be scanned.

This title is very misleading. The app is just for applying to a passport.

I for one have been enjoying the verge and weather.com without any crap or slowness.. just ignoring the consent at the bottom :P

for websites that do not allow me to navigate or do not have a refuse button, I simply navigate away.

So, question here: If I move from outside EU to a country that is part of the block, does that mean that my Google Account will change the terms and mention something about GDPR?

WA is always pretty slow. At least to me.
