I switched to Brave on iOS after the Chrome redesign that ruined the UX for me. Pretty happy with it so far. It has some pretty neat features as well -- a visible tab strip that you can swipe and select/close tabs, for example.
> Let us know what you think of the intro hero animation. That was the part built in Lottie. [1]
From the tooltip on the page:
> This site was built entirely with Webflow — minus most of the hero introduction, which we built in After Effects and integrated on the page using Lottie. We wrote custom code to sync the Lottie playback with the Webflow IX2 animations in the hero, and uploaded the Lottie animation via a feature we’re testing internally to upload files (JS, SVG, etc) to Webflow sites.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
* random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
* stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
* "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
* "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
We also have Smart-ID[1] now, a convenient alternative to Mobile-ID. Although not as widespread as Mobile-ID, most banks and government portals have already adopted it.
I personally prefer Smart-ID because of the low friction in getting started, compared to Mobile-ID where you have to get a SIM-card that supports it.
It has to be said, however, that this is NOT a "legal" qualified digital identity or signing scheme, conceptually similar to any other commercial authentication tools like PIN calculators, codecards or what not. It is actually marketed as such and provided by the private sector.
The security assumptions for Smart-ID are far weaker than MobileID or ID-cards and actually no government institution will accept such signatures. You can sometimes use it for identity, for example the Tax Board allows you to authenticate via your bank, which in turn may support Smart-ID: https://www.emta.ee/eng
Since offering Mobile-ID actually costs a lot of money to banks (since there is no direct connection to the card via browser and a USB cable, you have to pay to use some API-s across SK.ee & telcos), it is the main motivation for developing it.
Conversely, it's a good tech demo of using the real power of the id card infrastructure, that is trust root federation. More of that kind of thinking could enable great things.
I recently set up a mail server with DKIM, SPF, DMARC configured correctly. After spending a day fighting with major email services to not mark my emails as spam, I really saw the value of email service providers. But the damn prices...
Are there any alternatives to traditional email that could potentially replace it in the near future?
If you are starting a new bulk mail service, you have to be very careful about the IP address. It can't be from a known suspicious IP range (e.g. any part of Amazon EC2). It can't be an IP that already has a bad reputation from a previous service running on it. It can't be an IP that is currently running a bunch of other services and sites.
Even then, you have to "warm up" the IP by slowly increasing the send volume from it, over about a month, while maintaining low spam scores.
It's a pain in the ass, which is why email service provider is a business model.
There are alternatives to email, like targeting and boosting social media posts. But generally speaking, they are all more expensive than email, even taking into account service provider fees.
I find that odd as after I set up my email server I haven't had any issues. I'm not trying to discredit your experience, but I just never had that issue myself. Is it possible that you've got an IP that was previously used for spam?
