Good luck.
@neil he's got a terminal case of unix
@neil I once emailed someone to point out I was an Emacs user and their idea I never read their email was their problem. They were *very* confused
I feel the same.

Similar delight opening emails using FairEmail on my Android phone. Shame it's a Motorola with no alternative OSs though.
@neil That'd be me opening the email with the "d" key. (In mutt).
Seriously, actually _reading_ emails again is a delight.
Same for the web. Just... Just open it in `lynx`. <3
The web is still there. It's still good. It's amazing, in fact.

@401matthall I appreciate that a terminal interface is old fashioned, but for handling email, or reading RSS feeds, or writing something, it takes some beating.
I'm on the fence about web browsing, because so many sites depend on JavaScript (unnecessarily) - but I do like browsing using elinks when I can.
Oh, there's a definitely loss in utility on JS-dependent sites for certain but for _reading_ something, especially news articles, it's pretty great.
@neil Yahoo, Gmail, ...?
I rarely use any webmail, I guess I'm isolated if I use thunderbird as well.
