I think I tried this in the past and ran into some issues
- Comment on iPhone photos 3 days ago:
I’m in the habit of running old iPhones and iPods so I guess I just like to make my life difficult. I don’t have a MacBook though which is why I was stuck. I’m going to plug it in to my Linux laptop and see how it works

Cool thanks, I’m going to switch my business email next year sometime after I use up my business cards so I will check it out. Someone posted a great link with overviews of the different European email providers that was helpful.
- Comment on Mailfence email 2 weeks ago:
I ended up going with Mailfence and set it up yesterday. It looks pretty simple and straightforward. Proton was another good option but I liked that Mailfence uses sustainable energy for its servers. I decided anything would be better than Microsoft or Google so it’s nice to see more options available.
Thank you for your reply.

I’m replying to my own post but I thought I would share a review that was very thorough and helpful. It compares Proton and Mailfence. I didn’t understand all the technical stuff but I understood enough.

Does Tuta use POP for its email service then?
- Comment on Email provider 2 weeks ago:
I have personal and business needs (I’m an entrepreneur in the construction industry).
I am just starting out and trying to keep operational costs down. Proton has a free option and then some pay plans as well so it could work.
Some say they are carbon neutral with their servers which I also like since they all take electricity to run.
Thank you for your questions to my questions, probably there will be more questions

Cool thanks, I saw that one on the website link someone else posted
- Comment on Email provider 2 weeks ago:
So many choices!
Good website, it shows sustainable choices and also integration to other apps

Thanks for your reply Durandal, this will definitely help is deciding.
I was setting up some other apps and my Apple ID is still stuck with my ancient Hotmail address so was looking to tidy up things.
I will continue my research, thanks

- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 4 weeks ago:
I just installed Brave on my Ubuntu OS on my laptop to replace Chrome. It is running better than chrome was so far. Is there a way to setup Brave to safeguard against some of things mentioned or should I go with something like DuckDuckGo instead?

I was using Instagram and threads mostly but was wanting to stop using Meta based apps. Someone posted about the fediverse so I started using mastodon and Pixelfed.
This is supposed to be a Reddit replacement is what some people said but I didn’t really use that before

Is subscribing how you “follow” a certain community or person. I’ve been bouncing around to multiple apps so just checking how things work.
Thanks for the warm welcome

What does NSFW stand for? Nudes Sex Fun Wanking? Is switching on cause explicit content to show up or block it?
- Comment on I’m new to Lemmy 5 weeks ago:
Cool thanks, I’ll check it out. I can learn new things
- Comment on I’m new to Lemmy 5 weeks ago:
Ya I wasn’t sure which one to pick, this server said it was solar powered I think so I thought that was cool. It popped up with a list of a few to pick from. I’m on Vancouver Island and am exploring the Fediverse apps. I’m enjoying Pixelfed so far.
