I have an email forwarder on my personal domain that forwards to my gmail address, and gmail lets me send email as if it were coming from that address. Seems like it's the same result, and they're not blocking that.

anty · 2 months ago

Gmail quietly drops forwarded mails sometimes. They don't put them into the spam directory, either.

Did you rule out using IMAP?

anty · 2 months ago

With IMAP i need to run a mail server that stores my mails forever, right? I want to "import" a copy into Gmail and delete it on the original server.

Is there any solution that does not require me to run my own email server?

I have a 2GB email server. I use POP to regularly import the mails into Gmail. This deletes the mails on my limited-storage-server.

I already pay for Google storage. I do not want to pay (more) for another email server just so I can keep all my emails forever.

Forwarding mails does not work, because Gmail quietly drops mails. They don't even put them into the spam folder.

My webhoster told me I could pay for Google Workspace. There you apparently can use your own domain. But then I have a third service I have to pay.

1. Good point, we are going to publish more details about constraints in the repo within a few days 2. We have implemented row-level security, so you are free to easily implement any privacy role you want: https://docs.sqlitecloud.io/docs/rls. The "forbidden" rows are not synced

About encryption: all communications are over TLS.

Thanks for the clarification. Looking forward to see your solutions to the constraint problems.

Very cool, I'm working on something similar!

Naturally I have some questions:

1. I don't see any examples for foreign key constraints (ON DELETE and ON UPDATE) or UNIQUE constraints. Are constraints still supported? 2. How is row-level privacy implemented? Are "forbidden" rows not synced by the server logic, or are they encrypted?

I'm lucky enough that I mostly only consume English content on Youtube and not my native language, so I just set everything to English.

But yeah, it's incredibly stupid.

anty · 5 months ago

I did this too, but then YouTube translated videos in my native language to English.

Yep. Author here - that article is out of date now. I should really do a followup. Performance of CRDTs has improved again through a new grab bag of tricks. I’ve also been told the beta of automerge 3 uses a lot of the optimisations in that post, and it’s now much faster as a result.

A crdt library should be able to handle millions of changes per second. If it’s the bottleneck, something somewhere has gone wrong.

Please do! There are too few current articles about CRDTs around!

Google photos these days on my pixel constantly has various prompts to turn on their backup service.

It is so intrusive it might as well count as an ad.

Fortunately Aves is pretty good.

anty · 6 months ago

Google Photos also sometimes promotes a printing service. I forgot about that.

Genuine question – do Android people get ads in their OS default camera, calculator, calendar, phone, file-manager or SMS messaging applications? Or do have these Fossify application some extra privacy features that do not come with the default ones?

anty · 6 months ago

I don't see any ads on the mentioned apps on my Pixel phone.

I do have ads in the Play Store app and in the Gmail app, though.
