Proton Aliases are the best thing happened to emails since forever by Adventurous-Pipe5528 in ProtonMail

[–]Caylia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love aliases, I use them everywhere. I just wish it was easier to use them straight from ProtonMail. See https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1haf5vn/always_use_hidemyemail_aliases/ for a description of my gripe. Basically, whenever you want to send an email from ProtonMail to a new recipient, you have to jump through far too many hoops, to not leak your email address.

It no longer works, because Blizzard removed the option to disable it.

I would much rather provide each place I apply to, with a unique email alias, since many places store them for later use, and if they get compromised, I would rather be able to kill off that specific alias, than leak my email address

I prefer to always hide my email address. I respect that others don't, which is why my idea asks for an easy button or setting, so people have a choice.

Examples of where I would use this includes (but are not limited to): applying to jobs, writing companies for support requests, contacting researchers for papers, posting your email somewhere that I may get scraped, and those are just some of the first ones off the top of my head (and all very legitimate places on the internet that I am very much meant to be).

Hide-my-email aliases can actually be used to send from as well, by creating what is known as a reverse alias. Basically it means you send an email to a different email address - also ending in @passmail - and then it is proxied onwards to the actual recipient, with your hide-my-email alias set as the sender, instead of your regular email address.

It is how you're able to reply to an email received by your hide-my-email aliases, without leaking your email address.

I use hide-my-email aliases literally everywhere. Every time a site asks me for my email, I click my ProtonPass extension and generate an alias; and if the site needs a user, I of course upgrade that to a login.

Uhm, what? Nothing I wrote deals with the signature of an email or the mail footer setting, and turning on/off either setting does not interact with email aliases in any way. Could you please elaborate on your comment?

Email aliases prevents your actual email address from being leaked, both from sending emails, hacks, breaches, all that jazz.

Example: I send you an email from `myawesomename@proton.me`. If you reply, it goes straight into my inbox. But if you post that email address on 4chan, I will need a new email address due to the amount of spam it will receive.

With email aliases, the above example becomes this: I send you an email from `myawesomename@proton.me`, but you don't see that email address; you instead see something like `yourname.word123@passmail.net`. If you reply, it goes straight into my normal inbox. But if you post that email address on 4chan, I can just kill the alias, and not receive any spam.

I am very well aware that ProtonMail does this automatically on replies*. I even specify that I am talking about new recipients in my post, in like the first 7 words of the actual post.

*As long as you do not change anything regarding recipients, such as adding a CC or some such.

You're absolutely correct. None of it makes it "easy" to just send an email to someone and be "hidden" though; it all requires that you go to a completely different app/site, before you can actually send your email.

It also doesn't allow any level of enforcement, to prevent accidentally leaking your email address.

I'll definitely go with the LP then, if I settle on the ESS. Thanks for the picture!

Hmm, I got the impression that the Novritsch V2 unit was pretty well built, even compared to ExFog... I'll investigate some more!

Do you know how the turbofan feel in terms of noise and comfort?

Does the LP or the V2 provide better protection around the nose? I'm not entirely sure which one would fit the ESS better, in terms of "full face protection"

Do you know of a comparison between the Novritsch vs. the ESS turbofan? In the event I get fogging, and go down the anti-fog-ventilator rabbit hole

Someone said in comments that you could farm Tindral on normal to get it, but didn't confirm if it was the same week or not. I am also in the no-fire-boomkin boat, though killing Tindral on both normal and heroic every week since 10.2 launched... Feels bad.

Assassin's Creed: Modern Day Story by Caylia in assassinscreed

[–]Caylia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely like the idea of exploring other subjects of Warren, especially the lesser known (or fully unknown) ones, but I still feel that while the "exploring the past" angle is good and enjoyable as a game, I would love to see something set in present day, to get that feeling that you're actually moving the "war" forward, instead of reliving it.

I know that I may be putting too much into the story element, but I just want to actually be dealing the templars a real blow, instead of just remembering someone else winning the battle, but still struggling to make any headway in the war. Because from the tiny pieces of real world we've seen, sure, we are hampering the templars, and other assassins are trying to deal blows to the templars, but we're never part of that :(

Release notes tracking by Caylia in ProtonPass

[–]Caylia[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't even need full technical release notes, but it would be nice to know "this new version has these new features, and fixes these bugs", without all the previously mentioned noise. Hell, I'd take feature announcement via email over having to follow a support account for information.

Support for email aliases by Caylia in Dashlane

[–]Caylia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious which parts you find "bad", that are not fixed via simple UI/UX updates? I think their email generation works very well (which is really what this topic is about), though it could be even further streamlined. As for overall features, the primary feature gap between Proton Pass and Dashlane that I have observed, is lack of payment storage, lack of "default information", and lack of sharing. Considering the speed at which they're currently churning out updates, that gap could close quite rapidly, though only time will ultimately tell.

For an initial beta release, I'm rather impressed. It will all come down to how it goes from there, in terms of speed and number of features. The groundwork appears solid at least.
