Hi readers!
This issue of Swipe can help you avoid junk mail and phishing scams, improve your chess and puzzle skills, and even set up your own media server.
Our cover feature, a guide to banishing spam forever, can be found in the How-To section this time around. Spam filters have existed for decades, so why do we still get junk email, and what steps can you take to stop it?
We’ve also got a double whammy of great content for people who like thoughtful games that have stood the test of time. In the Reviews section you’ll find a roundup looking at apps that reimagine Chess in fun new ways, and later in the issue you’ll find a how-to on finding the best app for your favorite type of crossword puzzles. (It’s a minefield, trust us).
You’ll also find some salient advice for anyone bored of their current streaming services. We round up six lesser-known alternatives to Netflix, Disney+, et al – and teach you how to create your own streaming server if you’d rather stick to a collection of videos you already own instead of a subscription service.
All that and more in Swipe #264 – enjoy!
