A while back I started on this journey, and as most people did, I’ve had my ups and downs and went through the learning curve, I’ve now reached the point of so much knowledge that I truly know, I dont know shit. People of Lemmy I come to you today because idk what to do, I recently made a free account with proton, their subscription is fairly cheap so idm paying the monthly tier of 15GB so I can have control over ending it whenever I please instead of being locked in for a year. Now, I heard about Tuta but never dived much into it, i know Proton has had its controversies (Don’t be shy of reminding me of what they were), but what are my options here truly for a proper FOSS email provider? I can negate the free part for a reasonable price, but truly private AND secure is a must.
Self Hosting isn’t an option yet for personal reasons unless it’s completely free.
1·11 hours ago- Depends the email provider, I 'm not sure (quite certain they’re not) all are offering that.
- Yes. The moment you stop paying as it will most likely be sold for cheap. One of the oldest domain I owned (from the 90s) and got rid of a few years ago is now used by someone hosting porn… Which is kinda funny. Maybe one can also lose it in a trial? But that would be very specific… Say, you own StarWarsSucksHard.com you won’t probably own it for long the moment Disney’s armies of lawyers focus their attention on you ;)
