You will need to approve from application when shopping online.
For example, I am in the Netherlands, and the payment processing gateway here (called iDeal) will ask you to open your bank app and confirm your purchase every time. Whether it is allowed to do without a phone depends on the implementation of the bank. For bunq, it's okay to approve from web app as long as you verified your identity and trust the session. But for Revolut and most traditional banks like Rabobank, the procedure is completely dependent on mobile application, making it almost impossible to complete any purchase without installing the app.
This really pissed me off - I generally hate the idea of trusting one device, and this is the trend of modern internet. New device detected? Approve from your old device. Two factor authentication? Use your biometrics or just SMS code, no option for password managers or authenticators. Web app? Not functional at all, you have to scan QR from your phone to log in and then approve everything on mobile app. What a nightmare.
I don't know, my family are really, really not into that. And my dad was an IT guy, he taught me about Linux when I was 10. But now he becomes so burnt out and start to turn back to windows because there are too many compatibility issues (that's what he said, honestly my mind was blown at how he handles it ten years ago but not able to do it now when the compatibility has significantly improved. And he is an IT guy which is the craziest thing because I'm a f*cking mechanical engineer and that huge obstacle did not stop me from dual booting). But if he finally decides to give Linux desktop a chance again I would recommend EndeavourOS+KDE...
It's definitely not going to be. The most radical attempt to revolutionize email protocol that has been accepted is Tuta, where they use TutaCrypt instead of OpenPGP. And they are like being criticized af, because nobody actually wants to use TutaCrypt to replace standard encryption protocol. And you still get to send email to others with Tuta, which you can't even do with open.email. I am quite pessimistic on open.email's future.
If all you need is zero access encryption then Tuta is fine but if you would like to use OpenPGP more like u did in Proton then maybe mailbox.org and posteo would be better choice imho

Did you not learn anything from your high school that's easy🥲
Thanks so much. This is really helpful :3

I like the blog theme so much!
On desktop you can use web frontends like phtn. Honestly I would even love to use phtn on mobile as a pwa
Any distro would do, but for server Debian is always the most recommended and used
I prefer alias ö
The move towards Chinese market lol
at least they are speaking the truth, even if they pretend to be otherwise, you can never entrust data sovereignty to a foreign commercial entity…
EndeavourOS KDE Plasma is my favourite! It's really really considerate and inherits all the arch linux advantage :3
And if you want to control everything, selfhost stalwart would be nice
It depends what you want

Nice, would be great if there are some recurring discounts :3
And strongbox, as the most competent KeePass mobile client imo, recently goes closed source :(
Revolut has disposable cards and only valid for one time paynent
Archinstall is a part of arch so they say they use arch btw that's sensible to be
