Yeah, it sucks big time. DB is at the center of my workflow. Having my git repository in it, my projects plans, etc. I just have to not forget to "turn on, sync, turn off, work, turn on sync, turn off". On the other hand, I didn&#

I like Opera mail client but at this point, it is unusable for me: I have plenty of rules set in GMail but as in Opera Mail, there's no inbox, I only have a view with "unread mails", not taking in account those moved other la
