lol, glad i switched from outlook to protonmail
I’ve heard that you can’t easily search your entire email history with Proton mail. Have you found this to be an issue?
Coming from Gmail the proton search is a lot worse. Not unmanageable, but by far not as good.
Literally who would knowingly accept that
I’ve been a software developer for nearly 25 years now, and I can tell you this.
No cunt reads anything.
Something pops up over the top of what they want, they’ll click OK.
With dark patterns you can “guide” the user to click a particular button, for example by having “accept” in a large, bright stand out colored button, and the “reject” button in a low contrast, small or disabled looking button.
This will not prevent people from clicking reject, but it shifts the percentage of people clicking accept vs reject in the websites favor.
All MS software should be considered spyware.
It’s just a shame that Outlook doesn’t really have an alternative with the same level of functionality (not without spending a while adding on a bunch of add-ons anyway), and many workplaces (including mine) enforce use of Outlook and other MS software.
How’s Thunderbird nowadays?
Good as always for me. The only issue is syncing contacts and calenders with MS-Exchange Servers, for that you need plugins and I haven’t really found a good combination, but I don’t know if my workplace is at fault too.
Libreoffice? Open office? Thunderbird? Proton unlimited with its calendar?
Cooperate uses what ever other cooperate uses
Sorry… I thought you were using it for personal use.
In a corporate world you don’t get to decline. It just comes preinstalled and preconfigured on your work PC. IT department either cares about shit and configured it properly for all, or they don’t.
Outlook also sends all your email, including those from other accounts, to their cloud. No questions asked. Oh, also your password, because why not?

Sending the entire email content to their cloud isn’t that good.
However an advantage to doing so is to be able to use push notifications on the app without having to poll continuously the email address from the device. Which in return reduces the battery usage compared to constant polling.
However, they could have done something like spark mail, only get the email subject, sender and a little bit of the content to put into the noficiation then delete after the push notificdation has been sent.
I’ll take a massive privacy breach for a bit more battery life any time. What could go wrong?
