Sigh...Seems like every time Proton gets criticized, their fanboys always ensure to let you know that you're somehow wrong. I don't know how they managed to get recommended by so many people considering they provide unaffordable services for everyone not on a high income. I would try to migrate if I were you, they're pumping new features constantly despite their users wanting bugfixes and improvements to existing ones to gain more and more ecosystem users. It's a dark pattern. Look at Google and Apple.

"Oh, what about the free-tier?" It's a joke having to use their own clients when powerful open-source ones exist. "Oh, but it's because of the encryption that's protecting you!" I know how to use PGP, thanks. Plus, it only works if you're sending to other Proton accounts, and guess what? I don't even have control over my own key pair! (Edit: and when migrating away, I can't even bulk export my emails!)

Even the comments made by me and Dsklnsadog got vibe-based downvoted because they can't even bother to come up with a response on why our opinions were wrong. I'm glad I stopped using their services before I sent them any money.

Also why would someone who want enhanced privacy put all their eggs in the basket by trapping themself in Proton's ecosystem. Compartmentalize is important, and it ends up being cheaper too. Proton's pricing is cutthroat.

They can't even make it consistent. The border radius on the tabs, the URL bar, and the main page are all different.

I think all the RAM related issues were closed a while back and were supposedly fixed. I just don't understand why when interfacing with the front-end, it uses so much it would get OOM kill itself with 1.5 GB allocated memory.

Every page, as well as loading in the initial dashboard from an idle state, spikes the RAM. Are there no clever lazyloading happening or something? Surely viewing and modifying database entries can't be this memory intensive?

Maybe it's just an unoptimized Python thing. I stopped self-hosting stuff written in Python, with the exception of Linkding (which takes a while to also submit a link) and Whoogle.

I stopped using Paperless-NGX for this reason. It eats RAM and CPU insanely even after configuring it to stop doing OCR and no ML. I wish there is a Go alternative.

My uni groups are big enough that they wouldn't reconsider just for one person, group chats are mostly on WhatsApp, with some on Facebook. I managed to convert one person into using Linux though, so I consider my time at uni an overall W.

I'm using Headscale with minimal issues. It's low on resource and the docs Tailscale provides applies to it which is neat.

On Android I use Vanadium, I think there is a lot of work to be done for mobile still.

Do you mean sandboxing? Isn't this just Firefox's project Fission, which is already implemented?
