@patrickrhone Thank you Patrick and all.

I wonder if much of our different experiences on this thread relate to our work roles? I work primarily with large governmental organisations in child protective services where, in general, people are not very tech-literate. Email is used almost as an audit trail and has been ‘over-embraced’ so deleting and missing things is serious. I teach about some of the methods to use and manage email but, to be honest, it’s very hard to fight this monster that’s been created and is led from the top. The poor practices are very deeply embedded in many organisations. As a result, out of control & mixed-topic email threads, coupled with indiscriminate cc use, means that even for me as an ‘outsider’ consulting with them, my inbox is a mess. Sanebox is brilliant but it’s not built to manage so much user-error. Neither am I 🙃. The ability to re-organise and title threads and retitling feature in Hey really interests me for this.

\n\n

I’m also keen on their work looking at stopping trackers and creepiness in a cleverer way than spam filters. I gather they are going to open source this bit so hopefully other email providers will take up and build on this over time. One less tracker circling me to force purchase of mahabi slippers would be most welcome  ☺️

@bix @patrickrhone These are interesting points and I hope you don’t mind me joining in the discussion. I heard Jason Fried interviewed on Recode Decode yesterday and found it really illuminating. It looks like there’s a lot more to this service than another ‘snooze and filter’ app. Working to put more control with the user and help us be more intentional. I’m interested. Will watch the video.

@patrickrhone I am so sorry for what your country, and my country, and so many countries are experiencing. What people are experiencing. I wish I could feel comforted that that all of this is so far away, but I can’t. And it isn’t. Some of us have lost our way. Thank you for your words, for creating a clearing here and a space to think. I am not religious or knowledgeable enough in these areas, but I keep working on it. Your work helps. This podcast with John Lewis and the discussion on non-violent protest has also stayed with me. Be safe and thank you again. OnBeing : Love in Action
