  1. I want to look into #degoogleing my #email.

    Does anyone have opinions on #protonmail vs #fastmail?

    Ty!

    ETA: thanks everyone for the boosts/replies. I've decided I'm going to go with Fast Mail! :)

  4. Recently discovered #AdventureLog, an open source project designed around giving you a space to log and plan adventures - aptly named!

    It gives you a spot to record notes for each trip (upcoming and in the past), keep track of travel information such as flights, maintain a checklist and see a timeline with your destination. Vital to avoiding those "hmmm where am I staying tomorrow... Wait did I accidentally forget to book lodging!?" moments.

    Looking forward to some of the current ideas such as #immich integration.

    It's definitely a work in progress but I like the concept and direction the developer is heading. They seem really passionate about the project at the very least! Going to spend some time adding in some past trips to see how it all fits together.

  9. De-Googleing my life is harder than I thought. It‘s a long process to make the switch in all the different areas. Google Mail and Calendar are very well integrated and I also use the mobile apps. I share files via Drive with my wife. Not to mention our library on photos…

    This week we‘ve started migrating the first portion, which is Drive into our self-hosted NextCloud. We‘ll get there slowly.

  14. CW: Kagi search engine review ($5 tier)

    Just ran out of Kagi searches on the $5/300 search tier.

    To give it a proper try, I switched to using it as my main search engine on the 7th. It's not been a very search-heavy month for me at all, and even so I've used up 300 searches in 13 days.

    Pros:

    • Almost no search engine chum (trash content, AI generated features, stolen articles) - this is its main advantage over DDG
    • Clean, accurate, on-topic results
    • No fucking ads or tracking or search history or any such bullshit.

    Cons:

    • Having trouble finding the right mode for me. International searches skew too US American, French searches cut out international content entirely.
    • It's fequently just a search engine for reddit, per its top results. I've turned on the Small Web lens to see if this helps.
    • Eh, I have uncomfortable feelings about Kagi AI, which attempts to extract useful answers from documents. That said, if the forthcoming video question answering service means I don't have to watch a 15 minute video to find a 20 second answer that could have been one line of text, I may warm to it.

    I was hyper-aware of only having 300 searches, and didn't like that at all. It affected my search habits and make me less likely to just casually look stuff up.

    I'll upgrade to the $10 unlimited plan for the rest of the month, given that being able to research stuff is key to my professions.
