Day 63 (-1): Yesterday, I caved and downloaded #Firefox (quantum). Although it's not #foss, some of the other browsers didn't have all the functionality I needed to do my work.

If it had better password manager integration, #midori would have been top of my list.

Slow progress is progress, right?

Day 63: Finally purchased a Protonmail account purchased and finally migrated my primary work email across.

It's a pity that one can't set up more e-mail forwarders on an account - means I couldn't wholeheartedly recommend it to clients.

I'm content just now - waiting for mobile conversation view to grace my prescence :)

Nice. A simple page to determine what sort of information your browser is leaking to every site that you visit: http://webkay.robinlinus.com/

That #delightful moment when you realise that you're being force to switch a project to run on Linux. Oh noes.

As much as I rate SO - Meta really grates on the soul. There's a reason why I try to stay the hell out of Meta discussion.

Day 41: Finally found a promising music player to replace Google Music - Poweramp.

It wouldn't have taken this long, but previously I had rejected Poweramp when I was looking for my first music player as it didn't have features I needed that the Google app contained. It does now.

Running with the free trial just now, but will buy the full version when I've been using it for a bit.

Day 13: Still arsing around trying to find an email provider that I like. Protonmail appealed, and fully willing to pay the £5/mo for my email.

However, the app doesn't have a "conversations" view and I'm having email management flashbacks of the late 90s / early naughties.

I don't think I can go back to that time.

UX people: any tips on ending endless meetings about Fonts? #halp

Day 6: Found myself using #youtube for listening to music again. Although I do have a paid #spotify account, I find it's suggestion features to be woeful. #last.fm has been the best for me, but its integrations are spotty and often distracts me.

Today's quick fix is to try #pandora in conjunction with #tor
