I always use unique email as well. Just recently I started getting spam at newrelic@domain.com. It was easy to see where spam came from and add New Relic to the list of companies I’d not do business with.

I always use unique email. So far this problem only happened once with Zenni Optical.

@Fastmail: Another request. If I’m using my own domain, could the email generated be simpler? Instead of “some.thing1234@”, I’d rather just have “thing1234@“. Update: hmmm… looks like I can’t initiate an email with masked email though. I ca

Ah thanks. Currently out so didn’t check the desktop website. Hope the delete button can work on mobile too. This is a great feature. I’m glad this will bring it to more people.

@Fastmail: Please let me delete a masked email after creating it. Thanks. I just tried it with my own domain via the Fastmail iOS app. There doesn’t seem to be a way to delete things. I do like that I can attach notes and have an easy block

I have an add-on that I submitted an update for on June 21, 2021. It’s still “Awaiting Review”. It’s an add-on that only I use. It’s not published broadly. I basically only needed Mozilla to sign it so I can install it. Very frustrating. Af

I've been a fan of Khan Academy since they were just some Youtube videos. You can find Khan Academy's past Form 990 online and I've been archiving them. Sal Khan made: 2008: ? ($0 revenue) 2009: ? 2010: $70,833 2011: $348,879

I use offlineimap ( https://www.offlineimap.org/ ) weekly to backup my email from FastMail.

I wrote tweets2rss[1] and use it to turn my private lists into RSS feeds. For example, I have a feed in my RSS reader for interesting people (Bill Gates, Elon Musk, etc) and a list for interesting companies. [1]: https://githu

http://www.idownloadblog.com/2013/02/01/path-ftc-settlement/ I think Apple didn't always have that. There was the Path scandal and outcry that caused Apple to introduce better privacy options.

Bron, I think your concerns are justified and understandable. Thanks for entertaining the idea. I am one of those advocates and would enable such option if given. That said, I did have an instance when I had to call AWS support because of t

hi Bron, thank you for this response. Much clearer and I think this is what everyone wanted to see. Can I just clarify some things for peace of mind? 1) When you say regular support staff cannot alter security-sensitive details. How is that

It's a consistent, fixed standard that you hope you have trained your employees to adhere. Fingers crossed. /s

The blog post was in 2014. This security bypass happened in 2016. I think what we're witnessing here is that despite best intentions and past experience, humans are going to be humans. I actually felt good after reading that blog post

Oh, and also, I use my own domain on top of having a backup of my emails. What this means is that if all recovery options are not working and I'm actually locked out, I can fix it. I own the domain, I own my past emails, I can still ge

I understand what you're saying, but I think perhaps we can agree that the current response is insufficient? Have you taken a look at the link I supplied above where FastMail wrote about how 2fa protection could be bypassed at Gandi? T

Also, could you please add ability to get a phone call (instead of text message) to receive recovery options? That way I can setup my grandparents' phone number or something obscure as yet another recovery option. And then, please let

What I'm hearing is that the human aspect remains and there is absolutely no prevention of this happening in the future. The other response contains weasel words like "For instance, _some cases_ take 24 hours before the reset pass

This can be enough for me to consider leaving depending on how it's fixed. This response says absolutely nothing about how the vulnerability is prevented in the future. It's just a bunch of vague promises and mumbo jumbo. What spe

Just wondering, is your FastMail login email the same email as what you typically use?

It's a good idea, and I do the same. Except I actually just have Twitter via a RSS feed. I wrote some code that generates RSS from Twitter lists and I consume it and filter it just the same as any other RSS feeds.

When I had my internship at Amazon it was mostly cubicles. It's actually quite annoying and I had to have my earphones to get work done. Is it any different now?

Yes, I wish it worked this way! Even if with another shortcut that's ok too. GitHub issue: https://github.com/mozilla/testpilot-containers/issues/462

I would pay for this as well. Especially because GV was left for dead for so long. I'd like a company, that I can give money to, whose only motivation is to make a great GV-type product.

People don't have problem using an Apple account because they're not using that to track you everywhere and then use that against you in ads. It's the same thing between Chrome vs Firefox. People also don't have a proble

Yeah, I'm running Windows on my laptop and have Linux on my desktop. I've tried Bash on windows multiple times and it's simply too slow. I ended up just running Linux VM as my development environment when I'm on my lapto

I use uBlock Origin for adblocking and that extension comes with ability to hide elements on a page. I use it to hide news feed. Works great.

I mean my wife is still using my iPhone 3Gs (8 years old), so I get there are different needs. That's exactly my point. Would you make the argument that everyone should be using $200 chromebooks? If not, then why would one make the arg

That misses a key point I was making: OS updates. Yes, I too have a Nexus 4 (bought in 2012) and it still works fine. But no more updates. I don't consider that on par with say my previous work laptop, which was also 3 years before I u
