  • What Is Wrong with Enterprise Linux

    I fully agree, moreover this:

    > Rolling release distributions like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed follow upstream much more closely while still maintaining stability through thorough automated testing

    Shows the author hasn't used Tumbleweed for any reasonable amount of time himself[0][1][2]. I daily drove it for a short while before moving to Fedora.

  • MailSpring Compatibility?
    1 project | /r/ProtonMail | 15 Jun 2023
    /u/protonmail is the a reason why there's been no effort on this front? It appears that it comes down to some sort of handshake issue but I can't imagine this is that hard to fix.
  • JMAP – a much needed modern email open standard
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 May 2023
    I was hopeful that https://www.nylas.com/ would be the de-facto "adapter" placing a common API surface on top of the major providers and dragging them into a modern-API world. They even had an email client of their own as a proof of concept (forked by one of the original authors as https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring - and its reusable core https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring-Sync may be interesting to many here). But they've pivoted towards making their API only available behind B2B contracts and opaque pricing, and primarily used for corporate email monitoring and CRM use cases - perhaps because security and privacy considerations are nontrivial. I'm still rooting for them but it's a shadow of what it could have been.

    I love Mailspring, it's modern and open source: https://getmailspring.com/

    The UI uses Electron, but the actual sync engine is in C++, so it's pretty fast.

  • linux: choosing a well-supported and future proof email desktop client?
    1 project | /r/selfhosted | 31 Jan 2023
    Mailspring is quite nice. It also has a paid version and is actively updated so I think it's likely to stick around for awhile.
  • Cross Platform Email Client

    Mailspring, which is open source, is currently my recommendation for a desktop email client.
  • Which email client do you prefer and why?
    1 project | /r/linux4noobs | 16 Dec 2022
    Mailspring. Open-source and fully local, but an optional account and optional subscription for premium cloud-based features. Thunderbird was too cluttered and Geary, although I really wanted to like it, was just too minimal.
