    Because traffic data can’t be obtained without some tracking…

        Great info so that’s why non popular japaneese car app is working great for him

      I think it would be cool to do some sort of p2p network

        Either way the problem isn’t with the technology, but with how many people in a road junction is using that software.

    Thats what Felix said, im personally a fan of OrganicMaps

      Investigate about CoMaps… There’s some drama around Organic Maps due to bad leadership

        It is up to you

        Personally I don’t see anything wrong

    He emphasized that for him living in Japan and mainly needing to use maps in order to navigate, the japanese car GPS is the best fit.

    Which obviously is very different for people in a different situation.

    Organic maps rocks

      Organic died shortly ago (they’d been enshittifying for a while). We go with CoMaps nowadays.

        Can’t say I agree

  I think he actually used something else than proton, he didn’t mention though. Except that he uses his own domain name.

  I drive believe he has started hosting his own email though

    That is very hard to do

    I salute anyone who tries but big tech as sort of captured the market.

  • Gmail -> proton

  I recommend Tuta over Proton. They’re much more focused on their core product (not making their own crypto wallet or VPN or storage service or password manager), plus Tuta’s leadership has never endorsed US Republicans, unlike Proton’s

  • Willdrick@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I kinda use most of proton’s stuff. Also I’m not on the us so no idea what the second part means

    source

    • lambalicious@lemmy.sdf.org ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      The Proton CEO praised Trump and his control and choices regarding IT and antitrust some months ago. People said it was a “one-off” but then the Proton board backed up the CEO. Writing’s been on the wall for a while.

  Tailscale -> Headscale after you get comfy.

  source

  • Willdrick@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    It’s on my to-research list. I heard some rumblings that tailscale might go IPO. Not that’s bad by itself but I have been burned by stuff like that leaving me stranded once they “pivot their operations to maximize investor satisfaction” (aka enshittification)
