Email client for Linux (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I have been looking for an email client on Linux after being tired of Gmail and Outlook web clients.

I had Thunderbird installed on my system and thought I'd give it a spin. I set up POP for my email accounts and it worked fantastic... For a total of 2 hours, after which I realised that searching in Thunderbird is simply not going to work for me. I need to search by attachment name and sometimes even by text inside attachment and unfortunately Thunderbird can't do that (I think I tried an extension too but it made the UI super clunky to the point that I couldn't even understand how to navigate it anymore).

Does Betterbird or any other email client fix this problem? I'm willing to try other options if they are FOSS.

Thanks

Could you explain what you mean by a custom log function?

Agreed, but Mozilla now sells your data. And they're investing in useless rubbish (FOR THE LAST TIME I DON'T WANT AI IN MY BROWSER) and paying their CEO millions whilst their developers aren't getting much of the pie.

How do I map the Windows key to XFCE's Whisker menu on Debian? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

Hi, I'm running Debian with XFCE. I can't seem to bind the Windows key to the "Whisker Menu". I think I'm getting the name of the applet wrong, can someone tell me what the correct name is so I can create a new binding? Thanks

Pulling out simply means that they won't be present in the local app stores. If you're savvy enough to know what signal is I think you will do just fine with APKs

Everyone talks about Firefox but I think Ungoogled Chromium deserves a big mention around these parts. I'm sure the privacy community can find a way around on Ungoogled Chromium if FF ceases to exist one day.

Nice. But can I self-host this? And is it better than SearXng?

Flashing Graphene on Pixel or eOS on supported Nothing devices is quite easy TBH. I might even do that

Newsletter/RSS/general resource to keep up-to-date with DNS innovations? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

Hi,

I have realised that my understanding of DNS isn't very good, and that there are many new technologies being adopted by mainstream FOSS applications which augment DNS from how we traditionally know it (DNSCrypt, DANE etc).

I'm looking for a resource (blog, RSS feed) which talks about a lot about DNS and innovations happening in this space. If you have any recommendations, please let me know.

My interest lies mostly in DNS tech which is being adopted by FOSS server and client applications.

I would think that SUSE's supported distro is enterprise ready. I don't have personal experience on it though. I've only ever used Tumbleweed once. I hope a SUSE admin can respond.

Help me like desktop linux in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I think you should just run a windows VM with hardware graphical acceleration and run your windows specific apps Lee the Adobe suite and VS there. I use desktop Linux but I don't really have many needs.
