My current provider took care of most of that but i agree it is too difficult for most.

Aye, I missed that bit. Still annoying that something that was ad free has ads. But that’s more sensible.

I agree they make it seem exceptionally dramatic, but I do understand the annoyance of having a service included (an email address) and soon I need to pay for it. That is extremely annoying.

You can always buy a domain, and let a service take care of email hosting for you. Lots of email providers allow this.

Precisely, me and my wife have switched email providers several times while keeping the same address.

It really is. Luckily it’s a skill that can be trained.

I’ve only skimmed your comments, but I think a factor is also that a lot of them are really hard to read.

Examples I see are: weird sentence structure, the lack of paragraphs for longer messages, the lack of capitalisation, and rather odd/hyperbolic use of words (writing in the same way you’d speak?). This makes often come up as “noise” when reading it, which will get downvoted as it doesn’t contribute.

English isn’t my first language either (it’s not even my second or third!) so I understand it’s very hard to get these things right. But without sufficient clarity you will get downvotes, as it just comes off as noise.

Yeah same. I see a mix of positive and negative.

I also have several projects where I’m the only user, but I wouldn’t let that stop me from adding features for fun and exercise.

It’s not for me though. But I want to stress it’s not because I dislike it, but I find that seeing something blurred almost highlights something that’s gonna annoy me is here. Otherwise my brain would just kinda blank it. Good job tho, and I hope folks here are more interested.

A set of water pump wrenches. I’ve used them for all kinds of purposes that aren’t water pumps. They grip most things and allow a lotta torque.
