Re: Looking for browser recommendations
I still use Chrome myself but I really like the new version of Microsoft Edge. Anything Chromium based is going to be pretty good.

I like Edge Privacy Browser.

Re: Looking for browser recommendations
Chrome exists for the sole purpose of spying on you. Same thing with gmail. I converted everything to protonmail and firefox, and am actively moving back to linux.

Why protonmail over Thunderbird if you like Mozilla products?
I've used Thunderbird for years and am perfectly satisfied with it.

Re: Looking for browser recommendations
They're not the same thing, i.e. I use protonmail exclusively WITH Thunderbird. Thunderbird is an email CLIENT, and as long as you configure it correctly, doesn't care whether it's pulling/sending messages from/to a hotmail/gmail/yahoo mail/America Online/protonmail et c. server. Protonmail is an email sever that HAS a web interface, but like you I prefer Thunderbird's. So I use protonmail for its secure servers and Thunderbird as my email and calendar client.
I hope that clears things up.

I've had the same email address for 20+ years so reluctant to change it. And you can't get "verizon.net" emails any more

Re: Looking for browser recommendations
No i meant you can't get an @verizon.net email anymore
All of my primary email addresses are @verizzon.net, they were grandfathered in when Verizon bought AOL a few years ago.

Re: Looking for browser recommendations
Oh! I must have been grandfathered in. I am guessing that means if i change my email, no more verizon.net on end of it. Thanks for the heads up. I did not know this.
