Drive has no Linux client,

I'm actually pretty sure they have one. I was doing a lot of exploring the last 2 days to make sure it was worth it to me to spend money on. And I landed on a downloads page on my Linux desktop that had a download link for drive for fedora, or debian. I can't find it on mobile (where I am now), but I'll look later on my PC and see if I can link it.

Was wrong, not sure what I found. Must have been the vpn or mail app.

Photos is extremely barebones and locks you basically in, as there is no export function

Interesting, thanks for the heads up. Hopefully it gets better later on, but for the moment I'm glad I made my own solution using a NAS, and a sync client.

Contacts still don't sync

This was one of my first concerns, I'm also annoyed by it.

Additionally, I was hoping their big "docs update" would also include spreadsheets, but hopefully soon.

For real, if it's a useful product, and it's free, then YOU'RE the product.

Dude, you've made your point on virtually every comment on this thread. We get it, you don't trust them. The world has given all of us every reason not to blindly trust this sort of thing. But I've done enough digging that I'M happy with the security, and the fact they're not feeding my private content to the AI monster.

Please, for the love of the flying spaghetti monster, don't keep spamming EVERYONE with the same 3 points you've already made elsewhere.

This is the best comment so far 🤣.

First off, who gives out belts for languages? I've been writing software for over a decade and never got any belts. You'd better believe I'd actually wear that sucker on my gi.

Exposing their backend code to the public would be inviting bad actors to find loopholes in the logic. Your excuse for how they're not secure is in fact one of their security features. No code is perfect, and you give enough people enough time to peruse through your software they'll find a flaw to exploit. So they only provide their code to 3rd party audit companies they trust.

To be fair, it's not as clear as it could be that there are other "plus" plans. If you happen to land on the proton mail page when looking, they only show you the mail plus option (and unlimited). And even then really truncate what exactly you get for each paid option. There's a page that I was only able to find after opening my free account (it exists when not logged in, just never found it) that explains in depth all the options and differences.

Annoyingly, most of the individual upgrade pages don't give the 2 year purchase option either.

I don't think there's a spreadsheet app yet. Hopefully soon

What the hell does this even mean?

"guns don't kill people, people kill people", does that mean there should be zero regulations on guns?

Religion is the same, and historically has been the CAUSE not the TOOL for countless genocides and "justified" killings.

No, he said that he would probably be COUNTED as Protestant on some survey, those are rarely polled largely enough, and it's certainly not a census.

I still have records in the Mormon church, but I'm definitely not a Mormon any more. Would I be counted as one in those stats? Probably.

nieminen ,

Yeah, I'll give you the strawman, sorry about that. Made sense before I said it.

The Nazi belief was absolutely a religion. Not one of deity, but of superiority. A group of people held the same belief and tried to beat that belief into the whole world. TBH, sounds just like the crusades, just less successful. Thank goodness.

nieminen ,

Yeah, but these are taken as sample. I've never once been asked, but I'm certain my existence in a particular geographic area has been counted one way or the other. Was the sample statistically significant? Who knows.

nieminen ,

True, but many of them are being shot in our own schools.
