oh that’s sad. I mostly switched out of proton bc I didn’t want to put all my eggs in one basket. Also, not having IMAP sucksss because both the official proton and tuta apps are SLOW

also, check out some of the firefox forks. I personally really like Floorp since it lets me put the tab bar at the bottom and customise the UI! Librewolf is also decent but some of its privacy anti-fingerprinting stuff makes it a bit annoying to use

onlyoffice is also a pretty good option for ms office compatibility

i think he wants a rec for a linux distro

gmail -> proton or tuta if you don’t care about IMAP, or any other decent email provider (I use disroot, I set my brother up with mailfence, they both seem quite good. I use them with thunderbird) pycharm -> not an IDE, but I like VSCodium (vscode without MS)

yk, fair enough. if you like it, that’s fine by me

yep, the app is SLOW

I’ve tried tuta before. It seems pretty okay, but it doesn’t support IMAP meaning you have to use their app, and (at least for me) it was SLOW.

I personally use disroot, but there’s loads of other options, like mailfence seems like a decent alternative. Just pick one that supports IMAP

yep, I’ve added MSRPs of the CPUs as well as the current amazon list pricing (not GPUs though since rn GPU pricing is wild, e.g. 4070 ti super listed for $1000 or something like that)

and maybe instead of the vague “cheaper” heading it should be something like <100 or <150

yeah I should probably include the MSRPs or maybe a link to something like camelcamelcamel. that’s a good idea, I’ll do that later

also that logical increments site seems very cool, will go check it out!
