https://simplelogin.io/ (owned by Proton) is great for this. They have a feature to generate an email address by random word or even by uuid.

iOS has Lockdown Mode which it sounds like you could benefit from.

Also on iOS: Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers

I succeeded in doing this once long ago. Then while in the Linux vm I wiped the VM’s partition table, which wiped the physical disk partition table, including windows. Do not recommend.

I think you should reconsider Proton. It seems to tick all of your boxes except US-based. However, I know they have US-based VPN servers, so I expect they have US-based email servers as well. It’s worth asking their support team about.

Looks like you’re paying $138/yr for Proton, SL, and vpn. Consider getting Proton Unlimited for $120/yr which includes all of the above, and use Proton vpn.

I was also going to suggest Haiku. It’s the spiritual successor to BeOs. I was always disappointed that didn’t become more popular.

Ah, yes, I live on “St Mary’ ; DROP TABLE street”

Consider how well Lotus Notes handles your form>…>messaging pipeline. Why aren’t we still using an evolution of that? There’s always a shiny new technology that promises to fix all of the problems of the previous ones.

Memorize and practice this! You can do it in 2 seconds.

Do you perhaps have Resist Fingerprinting or Strict Enhanced Tracking Protection turned on?

I was never able to get videoconferencing sites working with any combination of those (on Linux), so I just use a vanilla Chrome instance just for videoconferencing.

Was it just the public part of the key, or was the secret key there, too? If it was just the public part, then maybe you imported the key at some time in the past?

Yes a back up is possible. Don’t back up partitions, back up the whole device. All 150+g at once.

Whenever you try to mount the device or the filesystems, make sure to mount it read-only so that no changes are written to the device.

Also, shrinking 84g of data into 32g is definitely not possible. Just changing the fdisk partition table doesn’t shrink or relocate the data. You need a filesystem-aware resizing tool to shrink the filesystem before shrinking the partition.

Hopefully you can just change the partition table back to the original values and get a clean fsck.

I see you’ve met my boss.

I’m living this right now. Bad requirements lead to bad results and lengthy rework.

It’s probably too complex for what you’re looking for, but https://www.kannel.org/ is a large-scale SMS gateway.

I use Emacs’ Org Mode. It may not be exactly what you’re looking for, but it is highly versatile.

Where’s that X cursor?

Me too. I could never get into nushell or fish because they’re not posix and I don’t need to learn two ways to do something.
