    If there’s an article with words, can you pass it along? I’m not inclined to go on a Google website and listen to someone slowwwwly tell me why Google is bad.

    Life’s too short to listen to people who talk slow.

          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.

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

          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)

        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
