If you want free, I’d recommend Protom Mail.

For paid, I really like Mailbox.org and Posteo. They work with IMAP/POP3, CardDAV, and CalDAV

I personally like both Posteo and mailbox.org, but they are paid email services.

You can use them for your email, contacts, calendars, and tasks. On Android, you can use Davx5 to sync them.

Magic Earth is not an open source app. They haven’t released any source code. Mentioning it as the OP title is about open source maps app.

Will Magic Earth be Open Source?

No; since it is also used commercially (we have a paid Magic Earth SDK for business partners), we cannot make the code public.

That being said, I love using Magic Earth for driving. It works quite well as long as your area is up-to-date on OSM

Simon Tatham’s Portable Puzzle Collection

It’s available on Linux, Windows, Android, iOS, and the web.

I play them on my phone to pass time.

Not when you use your own modem

I’m not going to rent Comcast’s modem/access point combo. It sucks.

And on that note, I condemn in the harshest terms the response from communities like /r/linux on the subject. The vile harassment and hate directed at the FDO officer in question is obscene and completely unjustifiable. I don’t care what window manager or desktop environment you use – this kind of behavior is completely uncalled for. I expect better.

Oh wow. That community is just hateful

I’m confused. Wouldn’t he have access to his email and maybe phone number that is attached to his Microsoft account to prove who he is?

This was such a great time loop movie

It lets you have all of your emails offline as well. If you have to reference an older email, it’s faster than loading the webpage again.

Some desktop email clients lets you manage your emails, contacts, tasks, and calendars all in one program, which loads immediately instead of loading multiple web pages. This is why I love Evolution and Thunderbird.

If you have multiple email accounts, it’s easier to use an email client, rather than having to log into multiple websites.

The search function in some web interfaces suck.

Some people just don’t like their email provider’s web interface.

I don’t know why Thunderbird can’t get a reliable, functional search ability. It’s such garbage. I constantly have to delete my entire search index and start from scratch, it is immensely frustrating.

Maybe see if Betterbird’s search works better for you

They get the traffic data from some third party, not by following their users like gmaps.

https://www.magicearth.com/faq-en/

Do you share data with third parties?

We send position data to our traffic provider to generate real-time traffic information. The data is anonymized on the phone, using a changing key (so it’s not linked to you), and it is deleted after 5 minutes.

They have a good privacy policy though. I haven’t really had many issues with their app.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t work on GNOME 46 yet. But looks like the porting is almost done!

Banking apps and Amazon don’t seem to like it

Try going into the app’s settings and toggle Exploit protection compatibility mode. That let me use my banking apps that didn’t work before.

It’s a paid service, so it’d be a bad default for a web browser. Not saying it’s a bad search engine; saying that it’s a bad search engine default for the every day folk who just installed a web browser.

I didn’t even know paid lunch breaks were/are even a thing. Most jobs I’ve been in had 30 min unpaid lunch.

I work 9 to 6 with 1 hour unpaid lunch at my current job. I don’t really do anything during my lunch besides sit in the office wasting time for an hour. Home is 30 min drive away, so I can’t go home. No parks nearby to walk around. Makes it feel like I am working a 9 hour shift getting paid 8 since I am sitting in the office for 9 hours…

I don’t think California would be able to handle the influx of people moving to California if they do pass universal healthcare. As a State, they don’t have as much funding as a Federal program would have.

Would love it if there is actually an active Tea community on Lemmy. The ones on Lemmy are pretty much dead. The Reddit one is super active.

Also, Lemmy doesn’t have active communities for individual games like Reddit does. They are useful to obtain information, get help, talk about builds, etc

There’s no AI on DDG

Uh… The settings for AI Chat and DuckAssist are both on by default when you use DuckDuckGo. You can see them in Settings -> AI Features

If Microsoft announces that this is going to be forcibly installed on all versions of Windows, then we can grab our pitchforks. Ideally this would end up being an opt-in feature. If it’s an opt-out when they release, again, pitchforks.

Well, per Microsoft’s website:

On devices that are not powered by a Snapdragon® X Series processor, installation of a Windows update will be required to run Recall.

So it sounds like everyone on Windows 11 will get it via Windows Update eventually

Self host FreshRSS, use the GReader or Fever API link that’s built into FreshRSS to sync to other apps on your local network. If you want to access the sync remotely, use Tailscale or setup Wireguard. I personally just run Wireguard in OpenWrt

There is no need to expose FreshRSS to the internet
