At Proton, we’re always working on new and innovative ways to protect the privacy and data of the Proton community.

Yeah, I guess that’s nice. I do like Proton.

I’d love for Proton to focus on completing some current services and make them actually usable though.

Just in case you wondered how many photos you really can have in your Apple Photos library, I can report that I have so far added 1 000 264 Photos and 10 242 Videos without any issues.

I’m fairly impressed and happy about it since all I could find was that it should support up to 100.000 photos, with a few reasoning about the limit being increased to 300.000 on modern hardware.

I’m running this on my MacBook Pro M2 Max with 64 GB ram.

Most formats gets converted to HEIC and HEVC on import, which are staggeringly effective compared to their original formats. The whole library file still only takes up 1.7TB, which is much less than expected. The original source on my NAS is around 5.6 TB.

Edit: Maybe I should add that I do not recommend this, and view it as an experiment for now. I’m still importing data. If it’s still stable and performant after a year and some OS updates then I can start recommending it.

Setting the app icon for Voyager seems to only apply to the icon shown for the app on the selected screen, but it does not for example apply to the icon shown for the running apps carousel.

Sometimes I accidentally hide posts by swipe gesture.

These posts are forever gone :/

Can functionality be added so that we can see and unhide hidden posts?

I’ve moved most active and new accounts over to Proton, and I’d like to migrate all my old emails too, but before that I’ll need to be able to search mail content from mobile.

This article covers the topic for desktop: https://proton.me/support/search

I hardly ever use search or mail on desktop though - it’s usually on the go I’m looking for information.

When is this coming to mobile apps?

So, a month ago or so a limited windows client for proton drive was released for everyone, and at ca the same time this statement was given about macOS beta:

We'll be expanding the beta over the next days starting with visionary users and our goal is to release it all very soon.

Further statements were made about how much quicker the rollout would be than for Windows.

However, as a Visionary user, I’ve still heard nothing. Also, there are zero posts about macOS beta on Reddit, so it seems like hardly anyone have been given access to the beta so far.

I don’t mind that it takes time. I just can’t fathom why it was necessary to tease it as just around the corner, making it seem like we would get it in a very short time?

Who has anything to gain at all from these false promises? It’s annoying when a company I trust and rely upon does so poorly with communication.

Not long ago, Proton had a news blog or email I cannot find that said ProtonVPN had now expanded support for watching streaming services and content like Disney+, NRK etc in Norway, and I see this support article up: https://protonvpn.com/support/watch-nrk-with-vpn/

I always use Proton through WireGuard instead of through the official app since I use a custom DNS setup to avoid ads etc.

Do you need to be on Protons app / DNS to get streaming to work?

I wish Proton allowed for custom DNS in their iOS app and I wish they said something about streaming services and geo blocks in the app.

So I thought it was worth it to buy the pre season pass so that I could watch the games afterwards instead of staying up at night.

But I can’t find anywhere to do it, so… it’s not possible? Payment will only get me permission to stay up at night and watch the games live, and that’s it?

I use system auto theme on my iPhone, which means it switches between light and dark based on time of day (sun).

On dark theme, Voyager is fine, but on light theme, Voyager has a color in the top bar that does not work.

Voyager has now reached a self-sustained rate of content generation from all the commits and pull requests to its source code repo, and no longer needs Lemmy as a source.

Singularity next!

So I’ve gone through and deleted all my comments and posts. For now I’ve only edited the content to . or deleted . I’ll see if that sticks, and then go through with actual deletion later.

However, I have a fair bit of comments in some subreddits that are restricted, like interestingasfuck and jellyfin. Do anyone know if moderators are open to requests for deleting comments? Or have they all left?

Edit: Just to be precise, I want to shred my data by overwriting it before I delete it.

I love my time here on Lemmy vs. the recent years on Reddit.

However, as we grow there are still a few weird actions / experiences in this vaste and diverse new fediverse of ours.

What I wish for more than anything is openness and transparency.

With that in mind,

• How can I see who is moderators in a community
• How can I see what moderator actions has been performed in that community?
• And how can I see what kind of moderator actions if any has been taken towards my own posts and comments?

These are really Lemmy-generic questions that I don’t know the answers to, but since 99% of my Lemmy explorations have ended up being performed through Voyager, I’m also specifically wondering how I can answer these questions through Voyager.
