I was wondering what happened to the Discord IPO. Discord already went to shit, I don't know what else an IPO could do to it? More restrictions?

Prices are coming down, but they won't come down a lot until more people buy it, but more people wont buy it unless it's cheaper...

Here's hoping there's some more restrictions imposed on meat.

Only a matter of time before plant-based alternatives fully take over from meat. Meat farming is not sustainable, as you mention all the land used to farm food for animals could be used to just farm more food for us directly.

We just have to get rid of the stigma around plant-based "meat".

No... RCS is a protocol (from GSMA) anyone can implement, Google just spearheaded it and developed Jibe to make it easy for operators to implement, but by doing this it means Google gained a lot of control of it and added their own features to such as end-to-end encryption.

Yeah, so in typical modern day fashion get ready to lose functionality.

They often trade UX for "pretty" these days and I find most apps and websites horrible to use in comparison to 10+ years ago. Like everything has to be in a context menu for some reason now.

It wants you to link accounts so Proton can automatically setup mail forwarding for you.

Web, Firefox. Happens in the desktop app too (which I dont currently see the point of? It's just an electron app with no extra functionality vs the webpage?)

Sorry, was showcasing how its bugged and I can't get rid of it (I never manage to click X, it just goes comes back to middle after a second regardless of what I do). If you have emails, it turns into that tiny version on the side, but again just randomly disappears, I managed to click X on it, but it came back again. Regardless of whether or not Proton should be doing this, the implementation is not robust and is broken for me.

Seems bugged. I assume it shouldn't even be appearing for paid accounts. And the linking a Google account shouldn't even be a thing at all.

 

I guess their new free plan changes means they force you into linking your account with Google, make you spam done on a million websites as they try to make you change the email associated with them and to use their mobile app.

If you don't do these things you lose your free data allowance!
And as a paid user it's even more annoying shit to deal with when visiting your inbox!

The best part? Doesn't even allow you to dismiss it.

Why does Proton keep making the UX worse and they are getting more aggressive.
