Email hasn't gotten any less complicated since the last time we covered it, but we have tried a few new options for wrangling our ever-increasing number of inboxes. This week we dig into some of our current strategies, with a focus on Will's time using Fastmail, a paid-only service that purports to let you throw out your Gmails and Outlooks and more fully control your email addresses on domains that you own. We also touch on some of the other popular services like Hey and Proton Mail, grouse about Google's tenacious AI features, dig into our latest trip to the electronics flea market a bit, and more.

OK, the boys ramble on a bit about the money and about AI.  The way we pay for SharePoint and M365 services and new ways to pay for Azure services then budgeting for your SharePoint services changes and increases as you are more successful with Copilot.But are we actually paying more or are things just changes... but then we got distracted... something that happens very rarely for Steve and Marijn... well...   OK check it out and enjoy... and maybe get prompted for a few ideas and the odd Golden Nugget...

Microsoft Ends Office 365 Support on Windows 10, D Wave's Quantum Milestone, TikTok Ban & More In today's episode of Hashtag Trending, Jim Love discusses Microsoft's announcement to end support for Office 365 apps on Windows 10 by October 2025, D Wave's achievement in selling the world's first commercial quantum computer, TikTok's impending shutdown in the U.S. due to federal ban concerns, and the Canadian Council of Innovators' launch of the Canadian Shield Institute with a $10 million donation from BlackBerry co-founder Jim Balsillie to safeguard Canada's economic future.
