F-droid doesn‘t accept the Proton Mail client due to integrated google notification framework. The APK however is available on protonapps.com.

Proton is currently rewritting the Android application completely.

The Scientist will always take a backseat to Drop by The Pharcyde which did the same thing, but years earlier in 1995 (and a rap track no less)

Oh, I see. Today I learned, I was born in '98 and really not fan of rap. Haha

I don't think anyone has appreciated what Coldplay did with their MV for The Scientist. In which Chris Martin really had to learn to sing the song backwards for the MV.

Here's what Director Jamie Thraves said on his interview with MTV way back on 2003

"I had this idea that I wanted to do a story that's tragic but starts off happy and ends happy, and the video is about rewinding to that happy ending,"

Thraves needed to find a new way to tell a narrative story that moved forward even as the action moved backward.

"The original idea was a straight narrative without the lead singer in the video," said Thraves. "But Chris wanted to be in the video and he was really excited to learn how to sing the song backward."

"He got a tape of the song recorded backward and he listened to it over and over. He's a very passionate guy, so he got really into it. What we learned later on is about the problems with phonetics, because you have to be very careful with the lip movement so that when you end on a sound your mouth is formed in the right way."

I think this would be always the most impressive music video in my book, ALWAYS. The dedication Chris Martin put man, I cant even think how he learned all of that.

I thought I accidentally subbed to a NSFW instance. I opted not to sub to any NSFW instances here.

I'm sorry to say this but, you must always put yourself first. You are responsible for everything that is happening to you. You have so much time for others but can't have time for yourself?

Do the things that make you happy, revisit some old hobbies, try working out, going outside for a run and gardening! Immersing yourself with nature really helps inside out.

So in the end, it will always be about profits. I feel very sad for every writer who put their whole lives perfecting their craft.

IMO, AI won't replace you, a person using will. AI does really help you make your job easier, but you still have to do the work. There ain't no easy jobs
