Added one more book to my reading 📖 list: The Fourth Turning. Gm

Because one cannot have too many domain names, right? Right?! 😅

(reading about migrating away from a well-known email provider -- regardless): "tags/labels may need manual recreation in the new system" 😐 Categories for emails, calendar events and contacts are all good and useful, but they are not transferable across email providers. IMAP, the minimum common denominator email access protocol does not have a concept of thematic labels/tags/categories. Hence it's understandable that each email client has its own solutions (which doesn't map, obvs, to other clients). It's not that I change providers often, but I was hoping things would've improved a bit since I left Gmail back in 2017.. GN #email #imap

This weekend I did some email *ahem* autumn cleaning. After achieving inbox 📥 zero and a reasonable folder & categorisation for the rest of my email, I feel like I've taken a heavy weight off me.. As a side note, most weekly "updates" or "things you may have missed" emails go unread. I had short of 2,000 of those. Such a waste of storage and bandwidth. #email

Virtue signalling puts me off.

This reminded me of subvocalization from Cory Doctorow's book "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" 👌 View quoted note →

Thinking 💭 about simplifying my personal email setup. Claude AI gave me valuable info on approaches to minimise correlation risk (worst-case scenario being a single email address allowing a third party knowing what other sites I hold accounts on) as well as trivially knowing where spammers got my email address from. Forwarding /masking email address services like Simple Login seem to be a piece of the solution's puzzle. What solutions do you use and recommend? #email #privacy

GM, happy Friday 🍁

Success Metrics You'll know the framework is working when: -You can find any email/event/contact within 30 seconds. -Categorisation decisions take <5 seconds. -You spend more time using your data than organising it. -Migration to new platforms takes hours, not days.

The network and sysadmin roles in me sallivate as I read this post by #Cloudflare.

Gm. Office day, yay...

The perk of buying a real book, one you can hold, is that you can gift it. Finishing a good book and sharing it afterwards is a great feeling. #books #reading
