adeleine··on Poll: Is there a negative stigma toward articles written in Medium?
Your own blog, as many have said, is probably the best.

When it comes to getting people to buy your articles: Well, I've never met a person who pays for their articles. Ever. Maybe you should sign up with a writing team that has a big website, I don't know, The Verge or something, and write there and get paid for it?

If it's for good SEO, well, as of now Google is flooded with low-quality, copied click-bait articles full of trackers, ads and spam.

Sitting in front of a phone all day at this age leads to severe mental health problems and is probably the biggest portal for unfiltered harmful content

adeleine··on W3.css – A minimal alternative to Bootstrap
From my experience with Bootstrap I can tell you the only thing you really need is the grid part of it and there are so many lightweight "frameworks" that have just that and its only 250 lines of css in the example of simple grid: https://simplegrid.io/

Everything else, buttons, modals, sliders, chords are super simple anyway you can just make them yourself or use a way more featurerich separate slider or modal framework and still be on less junk code than with using bootstrap.

tl;dr if you know html and css, you no longer need a css framework for most cases.

adeleine··on Show HN: I made a tool to hide HN usernames and reduce bias
When you're so impervious to bias that you don't even know that people have a problem with it.

Joking aside, have you thought of porting this into a simple user script that anyone can install? That would also mean support for all other browsers, and people don't have to use Google services.

adeleine··on Our ProtonMail Adventure – A Five Act Drama
I can't quite figure out what you disagree about. I stated that 1) ProtonMail Bridge makes things less secure and vulnerable 2) that I think it defeats the purpose of using ProtonMail in the first place 3) that you have to worry about the security of another software with ProtonMail Bridge.

I think you're saying that you're more likely to be compromised because of the host, and this is where I'm confused, because I didn't claim that you're more likely to be compromised by someone having access to your machine.

adeleine··on Our ProtonMail Adventure – A Five Act Drama
I think that using ProtonMail Bridge defeats the purpose of using ProtonMail in the first place. At this point there is no real difference to other hosts, except that the emails themselves are encrypted on ProtonMail's servers.

Now you are using another email client that you have to take care of its security yourself, and besides, anyone who has access to your machine will have access to your email when you turn on Bridge and open your email client. A big part of Protonmail is that these emails are not "stored" (cached, whatever) on your machine.
