Privacy@Lemmy.ml: Which email alias services allow unlimited aliases for websites *with a custom domain*?
  • You could go with a regular mailing service that has a catch all feature and the ability to forward emails to your main address. You lose out on all the useful features such as disabling certain addresses and open your inbox to more spam but it’s an idea.

    Not gonna outright recommend them in a privacy subreddit but for example Cloudflare has a feature like this from what I can tell and so does Apples paid icloud plans.

    Could setup your main address as name@example.com and your catch all with a subdomain such as servicename@mail.example.com and just have them forwarded to the first address

  • What would you like to see more of on Lemmy and/or the wider Fediverse?
  • Better search results on major search engines. Not gonna sit here and act like I know what I’m talking about but the major benefit of Reddit was being able to search a question and add “reddit” to the search and getting relevant results from years of posts.

    I’d love to see lemmy reach that point as thats honestly been my only reason to open reddit recently

  • What email client are you guys using?
  • i fear your best bet really is just using thunderbird or a fork of it and messing with themes.

    I did have the same reaction on my first instal of thunderbird but after customizing it a bit i’ve come to like it

  • How i can stop this google nag banner to login in third party websites?
  • Yep!

    ||id.google.com^ ||accounts.google.com/gsi/$3p ||smartlock.google.com^ ||accounts.google.com/gsi/iframe

    Feels pretty overkill at this point, can't help assume most of its redundant but I haven't run into any issues yet. I got them from this firefox support thread a while back

  • The role of attrition against mainstream platforms (Discussion)
  • Questions: What tactics could be used to move people en masse away from mainstream platforms

    Keep letting large platforms run themselves into the ground. Has been working with twitter, each substantial change is causing more and more people to ask why in the hell do I wanna stay. Other then that just push those you know to use alternatives

    I was able to easily convince friends to switch to firefox from chrome when they announced all those changes to their ad system

  • How i can stop this google nag banner to login in third party websites?
  • Install ublock, add a filter to block the login prompt in the “my rules” section

    Can’t find the exact rules I have but when I’m on my desktop i can reply with them, there’s a bunch of variants I found searching for it but they should all work (unless googles changed stuff)

  • What steps do you feel like are before a VPN?
  • First big step I took was going through all my emails and deleting inactive accounts/making deletion requests. It was a major hassle but made me feel a lot more secure about my email and digital footprint. Plus built a real basic understanding about taking a more minimalist approach to the internet, suddenly I wasn’t getting emails every hour and random notifications, it was nice.

    Other then that ublock origin and your password manager of choice that hopefully isn’t attached to the browser, oh and 2fa

  • What's the deal with Docker?
  • i’ve got a used dell optiplex laying around for any bigger projects so a pi would be for tinkering with and small scale stuff. I didn’t have a good grasp of how slow it would run though thank you

  • What features am I missing with older Apple TVs?
  • Oh no I can install apps, spotify/netflix work fine and I saw plenty of options. I just noticed facetime wasn’t supported and from scrolling through the most downloaded apps it felt like stuff was missing but I could easily be wrong.

    Got this yesterday so I’m still figuring everything out

  • What features am I missing with older Apple TVs?

    I recently was given an older apple tv for free (A1625, Apple TV HD, came out in 2015) and it’s capable of running the newest software from what I can tell, I noticed a fair share of apps missing so I was curious what am I missing out on if anything major

    How do you pick your usernames?
  • i imagine you won’t have an issue with spam in signal considering the .## they add to every username.

    But in general the more distinct it is the less likely you’ll have someone nagging you.

    If you want to avoid building a footprint of similar usernames my favorite is just switching out some letters (o’s to u’s or a’s to e’s stuff like that) or taking out specific letters entirely (ex: ottr)
