    Quick Delete Messages on Mac OS Monterey - Why Remove This??

    Why in the world would Apple remove the ability to quick delete messages in the Messages app on MacOS? This change is beyond frustrating. Is anyone aware of a way to enable the delete option when you hovered over a conversation? ?

    Which Mail service , Proton or Tutanota or iCloud is best at filtering spam

    I'm looking at those services and trying to decide which one is more customizable to filter unwanted mail. iCloud is the worse for what I know but using alias or hide my email maybe is a way of controlling it. Tutanota let you block a sender, but I don't like to leave my mail on any server...

    Often when I restart my Mac windows of either open or log-in apps aren't where they were before the restart, notably the "full screen" apps on my desktops are all in the same partially-off-screen position, which I find very annoying. How do I stop that behaviour once and for all? Or is this...
