It's a good idea. Also, domains are pretty cheap so I feel it a worthwhile yearly expense.

I've used addy.io for years and never had a site reject my alias. But I might do things differently than you. I own two domains for emails. My main one that is configured with Mailbox.org. And my secondary domain has its MX records set for addy.io. So when I create an alias I just make it at [email protected]. This is probably why I've never seen a service block me. I have seen lists on GitHub for companies to use in their code to block alias emails, and addy.io was in there. Are your aliases generated using their domains?

It's the airdrop a contact feature. Hold another, phone or even yours, up to it and it will trigger it.

I'm very happy with it. Also used it for three years with no issue. Proton is probably more "private" but I hated not being able to use a third party mail application like Thunderbird. And using the bridge app was too annoying. Also, proton calendars sucked at the time. Mailbox is just caldav and I have no issues with external invites. Honestly, most people's risk vector is going to be fine to not be on Proton or the like. Mailbox will let you auto encrypt everything with PGP as well, but you have to give them your private key which to me, made it less secure so I just turned that off.

I've used this service for three years. I used the free version for a couple months and then upgraded to the paid plan. It's awesome. The support is very responsive as well the 1 time I had an issue. And the problem wasn't on their end. I have 1 domain for my email on Mailbox.org, and another domain with MX setup for addy.io. So when I want to make a new email I just type one in on the fly. Don't have to create one on the site or extension first.

I can't talk about their ownership structure. Seems to be one person or maybe a small team. But that's just a guess.

This is not an original iPhone. They didn’t come in gold, nor had the antenna bar under the camera running across the back. Looks like an iPhone 6 . Still old photo though.

Is this only for music, or tv shows as well? I find myself shuffling shows a lot and it was nice in Plex to have a smart playlist and exclude shows that had been played in the last X days from the playlist.

I just finished this book over the weekend. It was fun.

I went through this a bit ago. The calibration of your pace is set during an outdoor run. Try and do one or two outdoor runs at the same pace as the treadmill and it should adjust.

I love this track. Saw them play it live in August and that was my first time hearing it. Happy to have seen it on streaming last week so I could give it a couple more listens.

Chezmoi has an amazing templating feature to address different files on different machines. It’s worth the time to set up.

 

Great work on the app! I noticed a couple of days ago that the app was using a ton of storage. Deleted the app and reinstalled, less than a week later it’s back up to ~2GB. Haven’t seen anyone else mention it so I just wanted to point it out. Curious to see if everyone else is seeing large amounts of disk consumption.
