For now Google's counterparts still rate better on interoperability (CalDAV, CardDAV).

I agree with you.

That being said, I'd be strongly inclined to believe all your stuff [from Personal Accounts] -- even if only its metadata -- will be fed to OpenAI/Bing's Sidney sooner or later. Same with Google with regards to Bard.

Can I expect a somewhat lesser focus on European cities in 1 to 2 years while VIA expands its capabilities on Northern America?

Thinking somewhat along the same scale, I'm planning for having 2 years+ of domain name registration, Fastmail payment & (I should) have Thunderbird constantly syncing the full IMAP to the disk.

In the name of efficiency, it won't be the state doing it until someone, or groups of someone, get sufficiently pissed.

EDIT: passwords & other secrets must be shared with someone of trust.

I never thinned an OS since Windows XP (Black Viper, you rule!). Why put yourself in harms' way by using an unsupported configuration? I briefly consider O&O ShutUp 11 for shutting up Windows' telemetry. AFAI read, works reasonably well, but made Edge not start after some updates.

I use Windows and Linux, for privacy concerns. If you want privacy, go for Mac (not that I'd do it). On mobile, still working out what are the best options.

Paywalled; Didn't Read.

I'm not engaging in illegal behaviour by using the archive.ph link, in fact, I'm reporting it to The Economist as it shall be DMCA'd (I will not, but I stand by my reasoning).

Where is it? Can't seem to find it.

EDIT: found it. Anyway, didn't read the article. I think paywalled submissions should be banned.

Have you ever used Windows Vista?

It is still a mess nowadays, but it has been polished - deduplication for WinSxS, search bar for Registry.
