  • Labels/Tags are a product feature, not part of email standards. Meaning: it’s not a thing when looking at the raw mail server data.

    Each product handles this in their own way, and the tool being used to export your mail from one host/product to another would be what is handling that, if at all. Gmail probably just uses folders because that is part of the structure a mail server would have.

    I believe Proton’s import tools handles this correctly from Gmail using both labels as folders and preserving tags, but I believe Thunderbird just puts them in folders as is standard.

    You can double check by looking at the raw data exported from any mail service. You could probably easily write a quick script to handle getting tag info and applying it yourself, though it could be quite slow.











  • It’s not about their actual effectiveness, it’s about the justification people use to force more “AI” reasons to fire people, reduce pay, eliminate jobs, and so on, and so on…

    Literally the first point in this speech, though broad, is making that case. A very small number of people are forcing this shit down people’s throats, and using it to justify the loss of monumental numbers of jobs.

    Feel free to look up Amazon’s upcoming waves of layoffs, Salesforce, Google, HP…etc. Amazon alone claims they will be replacing 150k jobs in the US alone in the next year with robots. Again, first point brought up by Bernie.






  • That’s…an opinion that is not backed by any facts at all. What in the world are you talking about with “bloat” 🤣

    So you’re a newbie, and making lots of wild claims and taking awfully opinionated positions in this thread all over the place. I don’t think you want help, so just be on your way 👍


  • This…is not accurate. Not being pedantic, just correcting the misunderstanding so you know the difference.

    LTS releases are built to be stable on pinned versions of point release kernel and packages. This ensures that a team can expect to not have to worry about major changes or updates for X years.

    Rolling Releases are simply updating new packages to whatever versions become available when released. Pretty much the opposite of an expected stable release for any period of time.

    Doesn’t have anything to with “forced reinstall” of anything. If you’ve been having to fully reinstall your OS every time a new LTS is released, you are kind of doing extra unnecessary work.

    You won’t need a terminal unless you refuse to use the GUI tools that do the same thing.

    If you want to use the terminal, go for it and use the default. If you eventually find it lacking THEN start investigating different options.

    Just use everything as you normally would otherwise, and you shouldn’t notice a huge shift.
