A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The notification to enable enhanced safe browsing even shows up when you're accessing Gmail on Firefox. It doesn't even make any damn sense, this feature only works on Chrome. And of course they'll never add a "don't show again" option. Think I might just set Gmail to forward to my Proton account from now on.
Edit: found an article on how to forward to ProtonMail in case anyone else wants to know how. Seems very easy to do.
I'll keep Gmail for any shit I might want to sign up for and use ProtonMail as my serious email account.
Been doing this for a while now.
I go back to Gmail every now and again to check if I've missed anything, it's just a cesspool of junk and spam.
Good to be away from it
