Tbh, out of all services I've seen people self-host, email is the most common one I've seen people describe as a bad idea™️.
I just chose a paid mail service (mailbox) and called it a day.
Yeah we should just let them win. Why fight? It’s not like most of the spam and phishing come from Gmail and hotmail accounts. It’s those fucking self hosters
Maybe the way to fight GMail's outsized power is to stop using GMail. You can do that without going all the way to self-hosting.
Yeah, I figure I did enough of a step by moving to Tutanota. Selfhosting email seems like overkill unless you're running some large organization or doing self-hosting as a hobby.
