New Ecobee Video Doorbell does NOT support HKSV
  • It's...okay. The hardware is decent, but the software (particularly the iOS app) has always been terrible.

  • What are you playing this weekend? 2023-09-09
  • I'm going the nostalgia route and playing Bioshock

  • Crimson Glory - Valhalla
  • RIP Midnight, you are missed

  • inundated by ads on iPhone. how do i stop them?
  • Pi-hole at home and pi-hole+PiVPN while away. Works perfectly

  • How about Vivaldi Browser?
  • It’s top on my list of Chromium browsers

  • [SOLVED] After migrating my custom domain to icloud+: Some Questions
  • Sure. By far the biggest issue is once you do it you are locked into using default iOS/MacOS mail apps. I’ve yet to find an alternative email client that can distinguish between your default iCloud account and your custom address.

    Receiving email isn’t the issue, it’s replying from your custom address. I suppose a client that can use email aliases would work, but honestly I stopped looking for one on iOS.

    It isn’t all bad though. Using iCloud’s storage and system basically means you don’t need to pay for a mail account at your domain registrar.

  • [SOLVED] After migrating my custom domain to icloud+: Some Questions
  • Prepare to be continually disappointed. I switched my domain over when it was first announced, and although it certainly works, there are definitely some needed features lacking. Other than centralizing how emails are delivered, there isn't much of a benefit to using a custom email domain. Plus, I've yet to find an iOS app (other than Mail) that works with them.

    Regarding migration, have you tried simply dragging and dropping the email from the old account onto the new one? I haven't used T-bird for this, but it works in Mail.

  • Why you shouldn't use Brave Browser
  • Hmm, I tried Arc but didn’t really “get” it. Perhaps I should give it a longer try

  • Why you shouldn't use Brave Browser
  • I get people wanting an alternative Chromium based browser. Vivaldi, IMO, is a much better than Brave, and doesn't have all the annoying crypto weirdness.

    I don't use either, though, I use Firefox

  • Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?
  • 12 years for me, bye bye! I really don't miss it much.

  • Jellyfish - Baby's Coming Back (1990)
  • One of my all time favorite bands. Too bad they never really made it big, or past two albums. Both albums are sonic masterpieces and sound amazing on vinyl.

  • Magic Trackpad for work? Good, Bad or Fine?
  • I used both a Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad and much prefer the trackpad. I can’t work with multitouch gestures, and I’ve never had any wrist pain after using it all day.

  • Using iCloud mail as AppleID login?
  • Yes, it works just fine, just make sure you heed the backup instructions (like with any online account like this) if you are worried.

  • A feature I waited for ever since I switched to an iPhone - Photos app can now tag pets.
  • It seems like a simple thing, but I was really looking forward to that feature as well

  • Apple Music or Spotify? what do you use and why?
  • Apple Music. I have a very large library and am an album listener. AM is much better at library organization for me.

  • Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked
  • Poor beehaw.org is still down

  • Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts down
  • Agree. The more I play around and get comfortable with Lemmy the more I realize I don’t need to “grieve” the loss of Reddit
