Why is the linked post so long?


Thanks for this. I’m surprised they haven’t made this more obvious in their release and other documentation


We can remove all the plastics. 98%. Just not the small ones.


The article is clearly specifically about quote unquote the small ones.


You mean, "the small ones"?


I concur on the sentiment - I think it’s great we don’t have avatars etc here as it makes it more content focused -

But at the same time I think the OP has made an awesome project! Well done


PSA: GitHub has a “private” email feature so you don’t have to use your real email in commits.

https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-an...


This is for commits (including merges/rebases) made through the web interface. You don't need a GitHub setting for your local mail. And in any case you could just use a dedicated commit author address if you are that worried.

Have your Gmail account pull emails from your in box, have Gmail send as if from your email address.


Exactly this - in "Exchange" terms they called it something like "smart host" if I remember. But basically you use a major provider to do the final "connect to the internet at large" but everything is on your machine and you could change your outbound routing at anytime.


Such an obvious solution when you point it out that way. Thank you!
