Proton Mail Long-Term Reliability

For those of you who have been using Proton Mail for a year or longer, how reliable have you found it? Have you encountered any instances where websites didn't accept or didn't deliver to you Proton email address? Have you ever had trouble accessing Proton Mail while travelling?

I'm looking to try some of the Proton services soon, so I'd appreciate some honest experience from real users. Thanks!

Recommend me a TLC NVMe for PCIe Gen 3

Hi,

I want to buy an NVMe disk for storage and games. I want a TLC drive for reliability, but maximum sequential read performance is not important. I only have PCIe Gen 3 with no plans to upgrade in the near future.

Can you comment on whether I should look at a Samsung 970 Plus, a Crucial P5, or something else?

Edit: I would want something with a DRAM cache if possible.

Thanks.

What Are You Brewing This Weekend?

Hi all,

I think it would be great to start a weekly/bi-weekly/monthly bean review and recommendation thread. Back in the days of the lockdowns, I found lots of great roasters on /r/Coffee and /r/Espresso, and I think it's generally interesting to see what others are using.

So, tell us about coffees that you've had recently, where they're grown and who they're roasted by, how you're preparing them, and anything else you'd like to share!

If you comment, please also let me know your thoughts on having this as a recurring discussion and how often you'd like to see it.

Cheers!

Quickly open post in your home instance?

Say I have a direct link to a post on a Lemmy instance other than the one where my account resides. For example, https://lemmy.ml/post/1378136, but my account in on Lemmy.world. Clinking the link opens the post on the link's home instance (in this case Lemmy.ml), but if I want to subscribe to the community or comment on the post, I need to open it on my account's home instance.

Is there a quick way to open the post on my home instance? So far, my best method involves opening the community in my own instance, finding the post, then commenting from there. If anyone has a quicker method, please share.

Cannot reach one specific IPv6 from one specific network

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/224140

My home ISP does CGNAT for IPv4, but provides native IPv6. I can use IPv6 just fine to access most of my resources, except for one specific server. I can access the server over IPv4 from my home network, and either over v4 or v6 from other networks I've tried. But I can't access it over IPv6 from my home network.

What could be the problem here? Where do I begin to diagnose it

S21 FE battery usage from 5G and 120 Hz

The S21 FE doesn't have an LTPO display, so you can run it at either fixed 60 Hz or fixed 120 Hz; there's no dyanmic scaling. For those of you who own one, what difference in battery usage do you notice from running the display at 60 Hz vs 120 Hz?

Furthermore, the modem in the SD888 is not the most efficient around. How does you battery life compare when you have 5G enabled (and actually connect to a 5G network) vs staying on 4G only?
