What's new in FairEmail, privacy aware email (f-droid version) 1.2272
--------------------
Notices
People keep asking me to add new, often exotic, features to the app, to whom I often say "no", and other people complain about too many features.
Both groups of people leave bad reviews for this, which is frustrating, also because there are already enough bad reviews for the wrong reasons
(email server problems, which unfortunately happen too often, etc.).
The main problem is that more features now make more people unhappy than happy.
Therefore, the rule
About FairEmail, privacy aware email (f-droid version) 1.2272
