Serious question, why SimpleLogin vs Proton aliases?

AlecSadler, to asklemmy in How do you cope with the state of the world today?

Huh, haven’t had those. Will check it out!

I really wish half loaves of bread were more common.

Yeah, my bad, that’s what I do - so I just wasn’t sure what the benefit of SimpleLogin was…fully open to admit maybe I’m missing something though.

I basically create an email alias for every service I use and when leaks happen I know exactly who the offender is - which is nice…I guess.

Looks like most of the existing replies captured my same use cases!

There have also been a couple of times where my wife and I disagreed about what we did on X day and it’s kind of nice to see who is right 😂

I think I also just like the raw data. I also keep spreadsheets of my utility bills over time, for example, because it’s weirdly fun to look back and see or compare.

One thing I’d really love is a self-hosted all-day heart rate tracker, but have yet to stumble on such a thing.

…what??

AlecSadler, to selfhosted in Started to move off Google (not strictly self-hosted)

Ahh, okay, that makes some sense. Thanks!

AlecSadler, to memes in Taking for granted

Absolutely! I had a job some 3 years back that said if I continue to perform well, I could probably be promoted in 2 years.

This was on the heels of no bonuses or raises that year (well, for the team I was on).

2 years? Also that was the team’s reward after a year of work? This was a Fortune 500 company with over $10B in revenue.

The next month…layoffs. We spent the month figuring out all the tribal knowledge that went out the door.

The next month after that…contractors must take 2 unpaid days off every month and holiday closures don’t count towards that.

The next month they said, “Good news! We’re renewing your contract.” - Nope. I’m out.

Last I heard everyone on my team also left in the following 3 months, the director of the department also left, and the VP got forced out and replaced.

Endless cycle of garbage.

I hadn’t! I’ll check it out.

AlecSadler, to linux in Is PopOs a good option if i don't want to tinker much with the OS and do some basic tasks as web browsing etc?

Ah, thank you. It was KDE Neon, sorry!

AlecSadler, to memes in What now?

Billions for me. The spinoffs don’t sound appealing.
