I am privacy conscious so I would like to use my proton.me account, but I wanted some advice. Should I use my gmail account for career related purposes or should a proton.me address be fine?

I’ve worked at a couple of places where it was a kind of
“badge of pride” to be more in control of your email e.g. tech
companies dealing with infrastructure/hosting. And then of course
there is, what I imagine, the vast majority of places which could not
care less.
Haha yeah I’ve written a fediverse system which connects email and
activitypub. Writing these from my regular email client (more info if
interested: https://apubtest2.srcbeat.com/apas.html) Looks like what
I’m gonna do is delete all carriage returns out just before it’s sent
out to the fediverse. Thanks for spotting that!
Out of curiosity from which app/client/frontend did you notice this?
perhaps habit? i know many people write markdown documents that way, it can help with editors which dont wrap text, and may be better for using grep and related line-based tools.
Ah so if you really want to know, it’s because one of the mail
clients I use quoted-printable encodes the body when sending a
message with lines >80-ish characters.
I haven’t implemented a decoder on the other end. My current
workaround is to pipe everything through fmt before it goes out.

Why do you type with
random parts
split by carraige
return.
It makes me read it like Captain Kirk.

On lemmy for iPhone you’re just skipping spaces “randomly” (where your carriage returns are, I’m guessing). It looks like:
Sorry not sure which app that is. Is this the default web interface e.g. at https://programming.dev ?
Or Memmy or one of the apps from the app store?
Memmy, sorry.
what client are you using? i dont think most render single linebreaks
Ah good spot. Sync for Lemmy renders the new lines.
Still don’t know why they are there in the first place :)

Yes I also actually do this too; I’m a fan of semantic line feeds.
In case you couldn’t tell, the whole system is a WIP ;)
