      The ceo promoted Trump. They offer a crypto wallet. Nothing wrong with their products per say, mostly politics. L

      I want to say… Some sort of self hoster with a cheap domain going for the “security through obscurity” approach…

      https://crt.sh/?q=91268476.xyz

      I’ll let you explore, but definitely a self hoster!

        .com’s are 10 bucks. How cheap could it be??

          Free for a year or so, depending on where you register

          The 1.111B class (basically the numbered domains) cost ~1 dollar/yr.

            That is a lot cheaper

              If you’re self-hosting something for your own use, there’s nothing better than the dollar .xyz domains, as that’s literally what they were priced like that for. Dunno if I would use them for public services, though.

    I’ve been a Runbox customer for many years. Never had a problem. Runbox is operated from privacy-respecting Norway.

    After trying and failing to get used to Proton’s UX, Fastmail has been great.

      Opened a Tuta account six months ago and have never been back on Protonmail as a result. Same quality for free.

      No implying that asking multiple times is bad.

      We should all be asking about and offering alternatives, a lot. Over and over.

    I’ve been using PurelyMail for over a year now and it’s been solid. Probably aimed more at tech-minded folk though.

    mailbox.org seems pretty good. No apps though. And setting up syncing for calendar and contacts takes a bit of work. but once it’s working, it’s good. I’m using thunderbird mobile for mail and DAVx5 to sync contacts and calendar.

    Sorry I’m not really adding to the question but we need alternatives for a lot of apps… Fb, Instagram, WhatsApp,etc it’s impossible for me to ditch them all without loosing contact with friends/family… any other threads going on about this? Maybe have a general thread and subsequent migration movements, we really need to act on this social life monopoly we’ve became hostages to…

        Not a shitty product, but the company is shit unfortunately

          That’s one take: that Andrew Yang is a Trump supporter. However, another take is that he made a massive mistake by making it seem as if he supported Trump, even though he was talking about something specific and narrow.

            If he doesn’t, then he could come out and state that and address all of the republican problems.

    Tuta, StartMail, Mailbox all have good reputations for privacy respecting services.

      StartMail is owned by an advertising company, it’s not a better choice whatsoever.
