Roblox Oof (it's a long story)

Is that an HBomberGuy reference? 👀

Makes sense! I hope it won't get enshittified now that Canva bought them.

Thanks, glad to hear the alternatives work for her! Does she use FLOSS ones (Inkscape, Scribus, GIMP, Krita, etc.) or Affinity's programs?

Thanks, that's interesting to hear! Can I ask what sort of graphic design she does?

My work primarily involves CMYK publications made in InDesign, using graphics made in Illustrator and Photoshop. So inter-operability and compatibility with professional CMYK printing are key for my needs.

Honestly nah, there are lots of other good options.

Unfortunately as someone who uses Adobe programs for work, the FLOSS alternatives are just not there yet :/ (especially considering how seamlessly Adobe programs work together)

if you poke around graphic design as a hobby, these might be fine, but not for professional use from what I've read :/

e.g. apparently Inkscape still can't really do CMYK

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Not sure how it works, it just changes all lemmy links I see on pages to be lemmy.world ones. You can select the home server on the first run.

I would ask "was it this? https://beehaw.org/comment/4363681

I have this userscript that changes all Lemmy links to my home instance, so that comment still shows up here: https://lemmy.world/comment/15087567

Since your goal is “to move to a European registrar” Porkbun is not for you.

https://hosting-checker.net/websites/porkbun.com “Webserver Amazon”

Here are some additional options. https://european-alternatives.eu/category/domain-name-registrar

I suggest you reach out to Infomaniak support and ask for an alternative method which is less invasive.

https://www.infomaniak.com/en/help

Try to make Infomaniak a better experience for everyone. Infomaniak claims to be “The Ethical Cloud” but they did not start business as a privacy company and have been learning over time. Help to teach them with one more customer story. Let us know what happens.

If no luck with Infomaniak helping, you can try to contact a different registrar before signing up to confirm they will accept your domain type and ask them what the process will be. Hold them accountable to whatever process they describe if you choose them.

My only real experience of non Gmail sites over the last two decades have been terrible but mandatory work webmail systems that are slow, clunky and look a decade out of date.

Uh same, Outlook Web's search function sucks so much compared to Gmail's 😫

So basically just give me Gmail's UX without the corporation pls. Do any of the competitors have similar search, filtering and tagging behaviour?

Yeah, with Firefox + uBlock Origin I'm always surprised when I come across an ad. It's like getting a spam email in my Gmail inbox in 2025, a novelty :)

Whatever ads slip through are still quite annoying though (especially autoplaying videos when I disabled it in the browser settings) - I either hide them with reading mode, or Stylus if it's a site I visit repeatedly, or if neither works I just go to another site 🤷‍♂️
