Yeah, I’ve thought the same. It’s like with ads on websites - ads are served from different domains and as blockers work by denying requests to those domains. If they really wanted they could serve the ads from the same domain as the rest of the website. I guess one day they might but so far it must not be worth it.

Yeah you can have a PIN with Island.

What are you using instead of Google Photos?

I’m the other way round, email was the first thing I degoogled. It’s Photos I don’t know how to replace.

I’m always tempted to get one but can’t quite justify the purchase. What difference does it make to your quality of life?

Took me longer than I’d care to admit to figure out Red Bull vodka is another name for vodka Red Bull.

I used to feel the same about settings pages but I’ve noticed I’m so used to the auto save settings way I now get annoyed at the opposite - when I change some settings, exit the page and then discover I’ve lost the changes because I was meant to click save.

I guess either way can work fine it just needs to be properly designed.

I’d suggest not calling anything out. People may well not hear exactly what you said and, even if they do, are unlikely to be able to process the information quickly enough. They’ll end up guessing what to do and that will often result in them doing the ‘wrong’ thing.

Could you provide a explanation for someone not in the US?

Yeah and you can systematically work through the various FODMAPs to figure out which ones cause you problems. It’s not that FODMAPs are all bad, it’s that there are groups of foods that you might be sensitive to.

I actually think switch email wasn’t too bad (just take it slow!). It’s Google Drive I actually don’t have a good replacement for.

That and Google Photos.

Suggestions welcome.

Yeah this is what I did over a couple of years. Move things over slowly as much as you be bothered… do the accounts and people you use the most first. Eventually you’ll only have junk going to your Google address and you’ll be happy to see it go.

Some (most?) email providers will have tools to help you move from Gmail and keep contacts etc.
