I remember when I was maybe 30 or so, a friend plucked a hair from my head and gave it to me while telling me it was my first grey hair and suggested I give it to my mother.
When I gave it to my mother she replied "That is not the first grey hair you have given me". -

SeaMonkey is the only one that comes to mind.
Add to that the 50 million monthly users they have lost in the past three years and I am not sure if it will last for more than a few years. I find myself asking the question of what browser/email client do I use next? Maybe time to do some research and writing.

>“Sometimes it comes up with a desert and it thinks its an indecent image or pornography,” says Met digital forensics head Mark Stokes. “For some reason, lots of people have screen-savers of deserts and it picks it up thinking it is skin color.”

Apple explains how iPhones will scan photos for child-sexual-abuse images Ars Technica
https://nu.federati.net/url/282291
>Shortly after reports today that Apple will start scanning iPhones for child-abuse images, the company confirmed its plan and provided details in a news release and technical summary.
>
>"Apple's method of detecting known CSAM (child sexual abuse material) is designed with user privacy in mind," Apple's announcement said. "Instead of scanning images in the cloud, the system performs on-device matching using a database of known CSAM image hashes provided by NCMEC (National Center for Missing and Exploited Children) and other child safety organizations. Apple further transforms this database into an unreadable set of hashes that is securely stored on users' devices."
>
>Apple provided more detail on the CSAM detection system in a technical summary and said its system uses a threshold "set to provide an extremely high level of accuracy and ensures less than a one in one trillion chance per year of incorrectly flagging a given account."
>
>The changes will roll out "later this year in updates to iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8, and macOS Monterey," Apple said. Apple will also deploy software that can analyze images in the Messages application for a new system that will "warn children and their parents when receiving or sending sexually explicit photos."

It has all of that last time I used it and it worked well on a shared server so it should run fine on a VPS
