  • As I said to people I know, fun. I have fun setting this up. Its a hobby. I like to search for bargains and build the automations. If you don’t have fun doing it, its usually not really worth it. It gets expensive quick and its kind of a lot of work to research and setup if you want to keep your privacy.



  • Lack of knowledge isn’t dumb, it’s just lack of knowledge. You can’t know everything.

    I run 2 docker containers, named slightly differently (my setup is a bit more complicated within a stack though). Then I map a different port for the FR one so it doesn’t conflict. Of course, you need a different config volume. Then once the container is up, you can I link my FR sonarr to my EN one. So when I request something on my EN Sonarr, it also adds it to my FR Sonarr.

    I also do that with movies, but for HD and 4K instead. I manage multi-language differently.

    I’ll PM you for my source of French content.






  • It’s not a bad service, their workflow is restrictive, but I think it is a good workflow though. Their goal is to make their user change the way they approach emails.

    It’s ambitious, but I won’t blame them. It showed me a way to manage emails that I didn’t know before though and I adapted it for my needs.




    • Syncing of calendar and contacts with android
    • Infinite alias with my own domain
    • no spam and trash in all mail
    • read/write sync with external calendar (google calendar for example)
    • catch all sending email address

    There is another important feature too that I need, but I don’t know if proton supports it. Fastmail currently manage the emails from 2 of my domains. I also supply an email address from one of those domains to each member of my family. I need to be able to forward every email received to a specific address to a Gmail address. The emails must skip my mailbox completely and not look as a simple forwarded email in their Gmail.


  • I’ve tried Hey, it’s nice, but you’re stuck with their workflow.

    I decided to reproduce their workflow inside of Fastmail. Worked well and now I adapted it for my needs. Something I couldn’t have done with Hey.

    Even today, I’m exploring Proton and I’m finding that some basic features offered by Fastmail are not available in Proton. The idea of encrypted emails is nice, but I’m not sacrificing some features that I use.
