Do you have multiple aliases set up in the Mail settings? And the Mail.app sends emails correctly from the one you select?

I've had to switch to FastMail app with iOS 14, because Mail.app sends emails from the wrong alias – from an address other than what's selected in the From field. I thought I'd messed up, but no, Mail.app just doesn't wo

I switched to Firefox in the end of 2019, and I don't think it's entirely clear cut, slowness-wise. In my experience, Safari slows down to a crawl if I open more than 5 or 6 tabs at once, especially something sadness inducing (thi

With the strong push for color _quality_ (please excuse my lack of a better term) on iOS devices lately, I find the OLED-equipped iPhone rumors a bit confounding. Last I recall they looked a bit off. Nice, but a bit off. That said, my exper
