People who commit robbery do feel bad about it afterwards due to the negative effects on the other people involved, for example: https://youtu.be/NhuYiozj2Eg?si=P0dw5AUxyHEMMTv_&t=846

Normally, exchanges that support a given currency are listed on CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko under "markets" on the page for that currency.

Is this what you're talking about: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/pinetwork/ https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/pi-network

I believe Skiff would automatically start using end to end encryption when it was available, without any user needing to enable it for any specific email, using the Web Key Directory standard: https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/blob/1634bea9d2a66ef5804b68d18d4218e0b7a8b806/docs/email.md#openpgp-compatible-services

It's not good for me that an email provider that supports that is undergoing dramatic changes, as an open standard that protects my privacy is more useful when it is used with more services.

I honestly have no idea why Skiff would be interesting for Notion. From what I can grasp the only Notion features overlap are Skiff Pages and perhaps Skiff Calendar.

Companies acquire other companies all the time. Notion surely thinks they can use something controlled by Skiff to make more money than by using its money another way. I expect Notion will use the acquisition of Skiff to start offering new services or improve their existing services in an attempt to increase their market share. They don't need to have similar preexisting services or products in order to do that, and there is surely information we don't know that influenced Notion's decision (e.g. a new product developed in secret that was only disclosed due to Skiff's interest in being acquired).

It's probably about as likely that other email service providers will shut down (or at least make the service they provide worse) unexpectedly.

A more sustainable solution would be to make it easier to self-host similar services and giving your contacts more help with transitioning to more privacy-respecting solutions.

I'm personally not very worried about proton.me or tuta.com shutting down without giving me much time to replace them, but it's a possibility I keep in mind as it would be inconvenient if that happened, and I can do a little bit to make it less inconvenient if it does happen (e.g. by registering alternate email addresses with any person or company who wants to talk to me).
