I’ll start:

  • RSS and blogs, news vs. social media
  • XMPP vs. WhatsApp/FB messenger/Snapchat
  • IRC vs. Matrix, Teams, Discord etc.
  • Forums vs. Social media, Reddit, Lemmy(?)

    Microsoft Outlook, from what I’ve seen of it, is horrible compared to Thunderbird. Why anyone would use the former is beyond me. You can’t even easily see message headers, so how the hell are you supposed to know whether a message is legit?

      Outlook

      • hides email address => security issue; eases phishing (even beyond not showing whether it’s ensured valid)
      • can’t have an inbox filter that moves emails and gives you a normal notification of unread email
      • can’t have an inbox filter that is both server side and gives a desktop notification
      • can’t save your reply email next to the replied to email in the inbox - but can in the folders
      • can’t handle specific column orders (was it category before date then not working? sth like that)

      I switched / had to switch at work. It works. I got used to it for the most part. But I’d much prefer using Thunderbird.

      Because I’m using both now in both I never intuitively navigate to the delete button. Because the layout is different between the two.
