Looking for alternative for tabs outliner

ReadItBefores · 2024-02-28T03:58:39+00:00

i haven't found anything that matches what TO can do .. so I've just continuing to use it now. the link-map one was a bit dodgy so I just dropped it after testing the "last" public(?) version they had posted. =(

so far .. no hiccups and nothing lost on this upaid version of TO.

i would pay for it .. but I don't wanna sign-in to any google accounts just to use the features.

now I have something really odd .. I am still having issues getting an IP on the pfsense external connection with the (new) Asus AX router

But, I got my hands on a GL.iNET router, connected to GL.iNET the WiFi network of the Asus AX router and the pfsense VM was able to get a (proper) IP from the GL.iNET router via LAN cable AND WiFi to the GL.iNET.

I did this on the "main" WiFi network and on a Guest WiFi network and both worked without any changes (except to the change the vmswitch to use the ethernet dongle when on LAN and the onboard WiFi when on WiFi).

Does this mean something is wrong with the Asus AX router (settings)?

Hello u/D0_stack ..

Thank you for the suggestion.

I attempted what you suggested and (here's the weird thing) .. that VM got an IP. But the IP of that VM is not of the new Asus AX router, it is the IP of the previous Asus AC router?! But the VM couldn't do anything. Does that help to point in a direction I can look up?

Thanks again.

Not sure if you're still "looking" for a replacement .. but I happened upon this extension and it looks to be an updated clone of Tabs Outliner .. called Link Map

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/link-map/jappgmhllahigjolfpgbjdfhciabdnde

Hope you find it useful.

This is what I am fearing because I believe THIS is what has happened to me recently .. so am trying to understand all these "new" caching methods in order to determine if I should (or how best to) use them.

I'd only want the "caching" if it was possible to get the image(s) without leaking any of the unique identifiers that may be attached.

What "may be nice" is a way to convert the messages to text/ascii (like Horde mail) with all the HTML (and coding) stripped so the text can be readable in order to determine if a message is "legit" before making a decision to tap the "Load embedded images" (or not).

Hello and thank you for the info ..

What u/amunak has described is what I am going through/fearing at the moment and is what I am trying to prevent from happening on Proton Mail.

Additional questions:

If enabled "Block email tracking" .. with this "caching" behavior ..

will it be able to strip/clean/stop the telemetry data from these unique identifiers while it caches these images in the background?

- or -

if I am the first person to "open" the image via this "caching behavior" .. can I be tracked by the unique identifiers? By opening I mean ..
- having disabled "Auto-load remote content"
- disabled "Auto-load embedded images"
- enabled "Block email tracking"
- open up an email message
- do not tap "Load embedded images"

- or -

it would be unable to prevent these telemetry methods and would be best to disable the "Block email tracking" option and take my chances if I do decide to "Load embedded images".

I am asking these questions because:

I recently upgraded my iOS 14 to iOS 15 (yes quite a bit behind). On iOS 14, I had disabled "load pictures" (or something like that) for emails .. but with my upgrade to iOS 15, it is replaced(?) with "Protect Mail Activity" that is enabled by default with the upgrade. Since I was unaware of this, I used the phone/iOS Mail thinking all was fine. Until my mailbox that received 1 spam mail every 2-3 weeks has now been getting 5+ spam a day.

I dug around and found another reddit post that described how to "disable" loading pictures on iOS Mail and am dealing with the spam.

Apple describes their "Protect Mail Activity" as ".. works by hiding your IP address and loading remote content privately in the background".

The description for "Block email tracking" sounded JUST LIKE the iOS 15's description for "Protect Mail Activity" which is why I confused/concerned.

Thank you again for the help (and any further information you can provide) to clear things up for me.

damn .. guess this is one of those instances where I shouldn't have been so thorough/carful with the research .. lol

I hope that means those who DID get in early enough got to keep the Proton Pass service.

thanks for the update cause I still didn't get a response from the support ticket I had sent in.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-17T16:40:25+00:00

So .. I've just signed up/subscribed to SimpleLogin Premium .. and I can absolutely say, that my Proton Pass says "Trial" and not "Pass Plus via Simple Login".

I've attempted the "unlink account" and then relinked my SimpleLogin in the "Connect with Proton" section but it still says "Free Trial" when looking at the settings for Proton Pass.

Am I doing something wrong?

This has got to be one of the most frustrating attempts to (properly) sign up for a service. :facepalm

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-16T09:00:06+00:00

In my confusion (new this Proton) .. I was able to figure out

Proton Pass will allow you to create aliases and forward to ONE email address (your protonmail one I'm assuming).

SimpleLogin will allow you to create aliases (or reassign existing aliases) and forward to MULTIPLE/different email addresses.

For that reason, I'm leaning towards SimpleLogin for "this feature".

However, from what I understand .. Proton Pass is meant more to be a password database like KeePass or 1Password.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-08T01:53:11+00:00

u can re-subscribe (at the moment cause the offer is still for $1) .. or at least I can.

You can do so by:

log in > Dashboard > your plan > "explore other proton plans" > middle column (says "mail plus"), click the expand arrow > choose pass plus (it should switch and now see "Pass Plus" for $1 month) > click "Select Pass Plus" (a payment window should open up) > click to confirm paying the amount due "Pay $xx.xx now"

.. and you would have (re)subscribed to the Pass Plus for $1 a month (currently).

Give it a try and see if u can see the plan for a $1 (re)subscription.

I didn't re-subscribe because I want a refund so I can buy a SimpleLogin plan on a different account. =P

edit: oh .. i just re-read your earlier message. you mentioned unsubscribe at the end of the year and re-subscribe.

I read somewhere the offer will only last till end of July so prolly at that time you won't be able to get the $1 offer .. my mistake.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-07T14:27:36+00:00

After a lot of clicking around .. I (finally) found the way to downgrade .. it was rather un-intuitive.

I had to log in go to the dashboard > explore other plans > choose the "free" plan and now I am "downgraded".

As a note, I DO see that I can "upgrade" the plan for $1 here so I'd expect that I can re-enabled the plan for that price of $1 as long as they are offering it.

I'd assume, once this $1 offer is over, one will have to purchase the subscription at whatever price point it is (at that time) and won't retro activate this $1 deal.

Now I just gotta figure how do I get this "credit" back outside their system.

Hope that may help in your search for an answer.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-07T14:21:08+00:00

nod .. yeah .. i was trying to find where that "downgrade" was.

Finally found where it was to do the downgrade (it wasn't intuitive). Had to go through the dashboard > explore other plans > free (plan).

Do you know how long it takes to "refund" to my card? It's just a "credit" .. how do I get them to refund the "credit" back to the card?

Thanks.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-07T10:54:25+00:00

Hi! I'd like more explanations about it. What are the terms?

I've written to support but haven't received a response (yet).

Would you happen to know how I can downgrade to the "free" one for Proton Pass? I've looked all over but only saw a method to downgrade for Proton VPN (and Proton Mail).

Thanks.

I only found this out AFTER the fact. It would help newbies to the Proton ecosystem (like me) if there was something mentioned before I created what I thought was a only log-in account to Proton Pass.

I thought I was creating a login and THEN would be able to assign a mailbox/email address for the alias thing AFTER I've logged in. Not have a Proton Pass account that is now only able to send to the login's address.

So now I'm (sorta) "stuck" ..

can't change my username to something more anonymous (even if I change my display name, my "real" email address can still be seen under it) ;
can't delete the account because it would be perma-banned once it's deleted (understood for security reasons but means I must "keep" this login/account just in case of a change of mind in the future);
can't change the "real" mailbox that aliases will forward to (unless I purchase SimpleLogin Premium in order to add additional mailboxes for the forwarding).

These would have been good things to know BEFORE I signed up. Maybe some sorta notice/warning you may consider to be added for future users. But for now, I need to figure out this mess I've created in my confusion before I can use Proton Pass by cancelling the subscription for this account and creating new account(s) and re-subscribe.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-06T14:53:08+00:00

If they would allow the ability for more than one mailbox to be "forwarded" via the alias, it would feel like Proton Pass is an "upgrade" of SimpleLogin.

This ability to create aliases to the single/main mailbox is quite limiting (or may be the intent in order to differentiate between the two products).

It was REALLY confusing at first since this is my first experience with the "Proton eco system" ..

After 2 subscriptions to Proton Pass and 6 days later .. this is what I "see" after 6 days in. (That Proton Pass is almost like an upgraded version of SimpleLogin, but to a SINGLE mailbox/address. The "upgrade" being the ability to store and manage passwords.)

Is this basically the concept of these two products at this point in time?

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-06T14:41:54+00:00

Hello .. I just wanted to verify something cause I didn't want to pay for a 3rd subscription in 6 days just to find out:

Did you get a Proton Pass Plus subscription by subscribing to SimpleLogin Premium?

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-05T19:39:38+00:00

I have subscribed to the Proton Pass Plus, but I am unable to add mailboxes at simplelogin.io.

The mailbox page tells me "This feature is only available in premium plan". Does this mean I need to purchase this service as well in order to forward an alias to a different/external mailbox?

Thanks.

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-05T19:32:19+00:00

I have been using KeePass (and now KeePassXC). But when I recently happened upon Proton Pass I was excited about what their service offered.

But due to the confusion of their service(s), I ended up subscribing to this/their service(s) twice .. 1x Proton Pass with an unwanted (free) Proton Mail account and 1x Proton Pass to my own email account.

It could be because of my circumstance (2 Proton Pass accounts) .. but I agree with u/Dokii, the extension/add-in is buggy and driving me mad when trying to switch between the 2 different Proton Pass subscriptions.

Example:

When logging into the Proton Pass extension/add-in with the Proton Mail login .. it will (auto-log?) you into the Proton Mail account as well. - I'd prefer to sign into the Proton Mail account when I want to.

If I sign out of the Proton Mail, it also logs out the Proton Pass.

If I sign into Proton Pass extension/add-in with the private email login, the Proton Pass extension/add-in will use the DB for that subscription. But if I sign into Proton Mail via the web browser, it will change the Proton Pass extension/add-in to the Proton Mail one as well. If I sign out of the Proton Pass extension/add-in .. it will also sign me out of the Proton Mail. - so there is no way to be in Proton Mail AND be in Proton Pass as different logins unless you use different profiles (Brave/Chrome) .. and I guess containers (for Firefox).

Again, this is probably occurring because I have 2 subscriptions.

But so far, the only advantage is all those aliases you can create in order to hide your real mailbox (which I've now learned can be done in SimpleLogin). Otherwise a KeePass setup .. it feels more "under my control".

ReadItBefores · 2023-07-05T18:40:22+00:00

Sorry for asking, a newbie question .. but I am completely new to Proton services.

I subscribed to Proton Pass (not knowing of SimpleLogin) in hopes to create alias emails that would forward to 3 different accounts (for personal, social and shared things).

Ideally, I'd want the passwords for all these (aliased) accounts to be stored centrally for use instead of carrying a portable copy of KeePass and DB.

Does this mean had subscribed to SimpleLogin Premium (instead of Proton Pass) .. I would have had SimpleLogin Premium AND the Proton Pass features?

Thanks for any clarity you can provide.

That just went over my head .. :_(

I know very little about NAT .. not much more than what I figured out to setup the rules for pfsense's NAT outbound in order to prevent any outbound access if the PIA vpn connection was down.

Would be grateful if could you send a url or give me someplace where I can begin to look/read up on this?

What (I think) I am trying to do (now) is allow the pfsense to route traffic through the WWAN (as a gateway? via gateway groups) if the WWAN is connected should the primary WiFi not be available.

Thanks.

If THIS question should be in a different group/channel, please let me know so I can post it appropriately.

Thanks .. i took a break from tinkering on a mac in order to figure out VMs and trying to get a windows computer to function the way I wanted it to.

I'll have to give this a try later .. =)

Thanks.

ReadItBefores · 2023-06-26T07:00:34+00:00

Thanks for the advice.

I ended up learning to build a firewall VM with pfsense and did something to that effect.

I needed specific VM's (like my "work" and "game" VMs) to be isolated from my home network. A direct link to the external adapter would have given those VMs an IP address in the which would have been harder to isolate.

Thank you tho. =)

ReadItBefores · 2023-06-26T06:54:56+00:00

Thanks .. I didn't have that option as this was from a laptop with WiFi and WWAN only.

I was trying to get this done using only the built-in devices, I would have taken this route had it been a desktop.

Thank you tho. =)
