What unholy thing is an "AppImage"? WTF? I thought the #linux world learned it's lesson with "flatpacks" and "snap" garbage, but I guess some are giving it the ol' college try again. If you want a standalone application, make a container or a statically linked binary. (#rustlang and #golang made that popular again) Or, like, create a Makefile like a normal person. Wtf Linux world.

@bitwarden@fosstodon.org I didn't know these existed! We just got my mother in law into Bitwarden last week, and she's great at learning through videos. ❤️

@badnetmask@hachyderm.io @pachli@mastodon.social Same here. Pixel 10 Pro l on the current Android 17 beta.

@tknarr@mstdn.social @nelson@tech.lgbt @jmason@mastodon.ie Yeah, the benefit of IMAP is no restricted API calls, but the downside is no filtering on Google's side. You'd have to implement spam and other filters upstream with Sieve or something.

@mgorny@social.treehouse.systems The relatively fine grained control over what gets included/built into individual packages. USE flags are the killer app.

@nelson@tech.lgbt @tknarr@mstdn.social @jmason@mastodon.ie I wrote https://github.com/ScottESanDiego/gmail-api-client to work around this, using exim and fetchmail to get things into #gmail . It's working REALLY WELL so far, with all the usual filters and stuff, just as when using #gmailify . Problem is that it uses "restricted" API calls which means annual code security reviews which I'm not going to do ($$) OR renew the auth every seven days. My app is "in production" so the token isn't expiring, not sure what happens when I fail to do a code review.
