Hi Lance
MEP?
No, I think you are misunderstanding my poor explanation.
Your emails are encrypted at rest on their server regardless if you use the web client or IMAP through the bridge.
The thing is that the encryption layer must happen at some point in time when you communicate with their API:s. In the web client this encryption is built-in. IMAP on the other hand does not support this type of end to end encryption, so the bridge adds this layer for you.
So you communicate unencrypted locally between your email client (Thunderbird for example) and the Protonmail bridge that you have installed locally on your computer. Then Protonmail bridge encrypts and decrypts all emails for you. So to your email client, it seems like a normal email server, but in reality everything is encrypted.
(Standard "encrypted email" disclaimer: Your emails are not encrypted in transit unless both parties, sending and receiving, are set up for encryption. Email is otherwise not end to end encrypted in transit)
Imap and end to end encryption are not possible at the same time.
Bridge exposes an IMAP interface but encrypts everything as Proton would, had you used the web client.
It solves a technical limitation.
This is exactly what I want. Thank you!
Same. Need iOS support to share with those close to me with iPhones.
I believe you are fixating on something that won't have much impact regardless of what choice you make. I have been using "windows keyboards" on Linux for years with literally no problems (related to keyboards and Linux). I mostly game, browse the web and work as a software engineer.
Focus on what feels good physically/ergonomically for you and your workflow and you'll be golden.
The only caveat I'd throw in there is if your keyboard of choice has some sort of RGB program for Windows or other custom software. It might not be as simple to control that functionality from Linux, but in many cases there are open source Linux alternatives for that software.
I think it has to do with creativity!
The CLI tools are just small simple tools. The power comes from having the understanding of how each tool works and how they can be combined.
I don't remember this string of commands, I know docker, awk and xargs. When I need this, that is the solution I always end up with.
Yeah, you were all right. I just managed to get to my sensor for real this time and can see the spec of dust on there. Previously I think I was just looking at the mirror.. Does it show that I'm a newbie? haha.
Well, I tried to blow the dust spec away with a blower thingy, but that didn't work. Considered using compressed air, but the internet said not to. So now I've ordered a sensor cleaning kit.
Thank you all for your help.

I have read a bit about the Matrix protocol and once tried running the Synapse home server and Element front end which is also available as Android/iOS apps.
Matrix is a federated chat protocol in the same way that ActivityPub is a federated social networking protocol. You can host your own Matrix compatible server and chat with people on other servers.
Recently I watched a video about their recent progress in which they showed a chat working peer to peer over bluetooth low energy when devices did not have access to the internet. Writing this, I just watched another P2P demo video where they show off this functionality once again.
This means you can use your own chat server as usual when
- You have an internet connection on your device
- Your device is on the same network as your server
- Your device can find a P2P route to the other users through nearby bluetooth devices running this software allowing your device to route through other devices network and bluetooth connections
Take all of this with a grain of salt as I am not completely sure I understand how the Matrix services work. I hope this helps.
