  • Microsoft's free Bing Wallpaper app for Windows is borderline malware

    Jump

  • there's ways to not install it and there's ways to get rid of it. Just so everyone knows. You can also use an app like simplewall to block any of the garbage in windows from connecting to the internet at all

  • Microsoft tries to convince Windows 10 users to buy a new PC with full-screen prompts

    Jump

  • any computer still using hardware that's not compatible with windows 11 will need to be replaced soon anyway

  • Microsoft is launching a $349 desktop PC that only runs Windows 11 by streaming it from the cloud

    Jump

  • Oh...so they just want to take all control away from the user? I won't be buying that, I'm sure it eats up a fuck ton of bandwidth too

  • New feature - Docs in Drive is now available on mobile for iOS and Android.

    Jump

  • now we just need proton docs inside of the proton drive desktop client too

  • Is it just me or is protonmail aggressively pushing the premium subscription?

    Jump

  • It costs money to maintain all this stuff. They're being super generous with their free options.

    Then there's all the court cases that they fight against on the regular too. That costs a lot of money as well.

  • All Proton Drive apps are now open source

    Jump

  • you mean they weren't already?

  • Move from 1password to Proton Pass?

    Jump

  • most password managers give you the option to export your saved credentials. Pick a format that proton pass can read and then import it into proton pass.

  • Proton Drive warning: don't reinstall

    Jump

  • you might've been able to avoid this by choosing a different folder for it to sync to on your re-install

  • Real email visible through email aliases?

    Jump

  • answering the question in the title...no. Not to the service you're using it to sign up for anyway

    But someone monitoring the emails going from one address to another? Probably yes.

  • Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon

    Jump

  • ProtonPass TOTP question

    Jump

  • I started using Aegis as soon as I saw the update for the google authenticator that "securely stores" my authentication tokens....in google's own severs...that get hacked all the time.

    Don't use proton pass to store your 2FA tokens, use something like Aegis for 2FA tokens instead, and be sure to password protect it with a password that you DON'T store inside of proton pass

  • Microsoft is reviving Skype on Windows 11 by removing ads, reducing clutter

    Jump

  • you mean they discontinued it? I wouldn't know, I haven't had skype installed in a long time.

    Jump

    Jump

  • I already have that feature disabled!

    Thanks to O&O shutup10++

  • You can now secure your Proton Pass account with an extra password

    Jump

  • I thought proton was already doing this? With the mailbox password and the "two password mode" in the settings in our accounts?

  • Did Proton just add more African vpn options?

    Jump

  • probably

  • A Windows 11 bug is incorrectly nagging users to change their time zone
