I feel like I’d even trust Zuckerberg over Musk with my email
And I’d never trust Zuckerberg with my email
I wouldn’t even trust them with my public keys
I’m borrowing that.
Are you going to give it back?
Maybe one day, when you least expect it!
I can’t wait for twitter’s youtube competitor Xvideos!
I just tried that and now Human Resources wants me to come down to meet with them.
Maybe you’re winning an award!
As an early adopter, I approve
That’s already on Twitter.
It’s like Gmail but with racism!
“I’m sorry, you cannot send this email because it contains the words “cisgender”, please edit this and try again.”
The DOGE police is on their way to your location.
we just call that the police in the USA
Wouldn’t surprise me that instead of offering the current owner something nice and real that he’ll just spend 10 times the amount on lawyers to just sue the guy into oblivion to get it.
Fuck Musk
he could just use x.com for that too
It would probably be mail.x[.]com
Let me remind you that this will be under the same guy who made his employees yank out server machines and transport them in an unprofessional and insecure manner. Your data would be unsafe with him in more than one way.
ProtonMail is enough for me.
Shove that stupid ‘X’ up your ass, Musk.
Get fucked Elon.
GMail could actually use more competitors. However I definitely won’t be trusting Musk with my email.
You can use bullshit X email for bullshit social media accounts like Reddit. Sweet.
You mean giving him an easily scrape-able database of my social media interactions and interests/internet footprint via junk mail lists/marketing ads from sites I visit and sign up for?
Thank you but I’m personally going to pass.
Called this before the election. Musk is going to try and angle to get his shitty platforms to be used exclusively by government agencies. It’s an out in the open plan to just steal and funnel taxpayer money for bullshit.
lol ew
I think something he just plain doesn’t get… who on earth is the target demographic. There’s no shortage of e-mail services, outlook, yahoo, gmail, as public easy to use ones.
So what I gather, the closest to a major “feature”, is to remove formatting and image ability from the e-mail. Which… most likely means existing e-mails formatted for other platforms, will error out or be unreadable unless individuals choose not to use their formatting ability from their mail clients?
Gmail rose to fame, because it actually solved a real problem. IE at the time gmail came out, hotmail was offering like 10 MB of storage. Google offered 1GB. A change so big people thought the anouncement was just an april fools joke (admitted, announcing it on april 1st was probably intentional for that as well).
It’ll be the mail service for the alt-right, I’d imagine.
I guess, but even there… I fail to see the target there. IE truth social and xitter at least have a reason alt right extremists need them… IE facebook and old twitter would occasionally ban people or put fact checks on some nazi rhetoric and blatent false stories. To my knowledge no e-mail provider is going to ban you for sending that FW:FW:FW:FW: My dog was infected by my son’s friends covid vaccine, and my hatian neighbor became trans after eating it.
And just like that, I’m suddenly way more comfortable google…
I’ll be sticking with Protonmail, personally
I tried switching to Proton. They took my money somehow (I think I was looking over the paid options and then got distracted and auto filled. Basically I wasn’t paying attention) and then when I noticed on my cc bill I contacted them to say 'hey, I didn’t mean to pay for all these features I don’t need and am not using. Can I please have a refund?" They were like “lol it’s been a month and 2 days so no, enjoy your 17 email addresses and some other crap you aren’t using and don’t need.”.
Still looking for an alternative to Google but it isn’t going to be Proton.
That honestly seems like a reasonable response from Proton. You signed up for their paid service; you’re not entitled to a refund because you weren’t paying attention
You are correct, which is why I didn’t pursue the matter. They can keep my money, they’ve lost a customer.
They are providing a SERVICE. I was not using the service, I didn’t need it. The mistake might have been mine (assuming it wasn’t a dark pattern or sketchy design) but they had a choice: keep my money and tell me to go fuck myself (which they did) or refund my money at no cost to them. This wasn’t a box of goods that they would have to take back and reinventory.
I would have purchased the lower tier of service (which I explained to the rep) and continued to use their services, and I would have been telling you about how they were reasonable and I am a happy customer.
I had already invested significant effort in moving my email over, it was a pain to shift back, but if Proton’s answer to a simple problem is “fuck you, we’ve got ours.”, I’ll pass. I spent a lot of time on their 'pick a paid service" page because I was going to pay for one of their lower tiers, I just hadn’t decided which one.
The bar is pretty low, but yeah. At least Google provides a pretty good email service. I can’t have the same confidence in a Musk product.
Sure musk, get my private stuff. No, F off you nazi as*hole.
You’re allowed to swear on the Internet.
Fuck yeah
Yeah! Hell, damn, fart!
MuskMail?
Nah dawg. I’m good.
Probably end up getting banned from my own email when he gets triggered by whatever he happens to be triggered by that day. Don’t really feel like trusting my data to an adult that acts like a 12 year old.
It would certainly accelerate the development of language. How many new words will be invented, or existing words subverted, to serve clandestine communications and slip past the filters? Steganography, anyone?
Can I See Great Etchings Near Dubai Ending Roughly? <- That’s a bit weak, but you get the idea.
I like the idea of finding alternative and clever ways of saying things, but I wouldn’t like having to do it out of fear of offending our billionaire overlords.
MuskMail?
smells like desperation and divorce
Dang that’s a bit harsh to the poor 12 year olds, being compared to someone like that!
