Re:Tell HN: I can no longer support Protonmail on Monday December 05, 2022 @03:06AM (#33862811)
So you expected to downgrade to the free (1GB) plan AND keep all your accumulated GB's?

Edit: Also, I can see why Proton does not support auto-forwarding mails from their secure environment...

Re:Don't store TOTP in Bitwarden for your online accounts on Sunday November 20, 2022 @04:15AM (#33679533)
For the not-so-ciritical websites that offer TOTP, I store it in Bitwarden for convenience. For critical websites I use my Yubikey. Best of both worlds me thinks.
Re:Ask HN: Does anybody still use bookmarking services? on Friday June 24, 2022 @03:24AM (#31858683)
For articles I want to read later I use Pocket. It syncs nicely to my Kobo which I like much better for reading long articles than a computer screen.
Re:Is RSS Dead? on Monday June 13, 2022 @04:24AM (#31722703)
RSS is not dead for me. I've been reading news/blogs via RSS for many many years now. Self-hosted Tiny Tiny RSS instance and subscribed to 300+ feeds.

Sure, some sites drop RSS support once in a while but sometimes they will enable it again upon request.

If a website does not provide RSS, changes are small that I ever come back. If I really want to keep up to date with a site maybe I'll follow on twitter and try to generate an RSS feed from that :)

RSS is great. The biggest benefit is ofcourse that you don't have to visit every.single.site that you are interest in but also filtering and labeling articles really boosts my daily newsflow :)

Re:Ask HN: How do you manage your RSS feeds? on Thursday November 04, 2021 @03:02PM (#29111201)
I use Tiny Tiny RSS on a Synology. It pulls feeds every 15. minutes and I filter the entries based on title, content or tags. It has a great readability plugin that can expand the article to full text. I've been using it for years, it's great.

Oh man, the stamp trick was so cool!

I had a PO box where all the packages were sent to. I still can remember how excited I was, riding my bike (I was 15) to the postal office and open that treasure chest full of foreign packages. I'm from The Netherlands and did a lot of swapping with people from Belgium, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Yes, real good times with a lot of friendly people.

Me too. Using Tiny Tiny RSS on my NAS for years now. Love it!

No problems here!
Very impressive!

Interesting. Do you mind to explain this a bit more?
