Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new "king"
Honestly I'll still be using Proton and recommending it because it's just good and a net benefit for everyone, but goddammit Andy you should've taken Swiss neutrality to heart this time and not said anything.
Honestly, building a mail server isn't that hard if you aren't afraid of the command line.
Lol wut. All veteran sysadmins know email servers are like the hardest servers to maintain n
Email delivery and spam are fucking hard.
Most orgs just outsource it for this reason.
True, but what you should really be afraid of these days are spam filters and hackers. As much as I'd love to selfhost my own mail server, IMHO it's just not worth the risk of important emails getting flagged as spam (both outgoing and incoming), or losing control of accounts due to a zero day attack or other means. The latter might sound far-fetched but I just saw it happen firsthand to a friend. The modern internet is a battleground!
Theres the real problem with repugs. They think they are the "little guy"s

they doubled down on mastodon (the official account too) but now it's deleted. Here's their comment on reddit: https://archive.ph/quYyb
Too bad, I was considering their service when my VPN service ran out. Not excluding them outright, but will have to keep a eye on it.
Me too. This is disappointing. I think I'm gonna go with Mullvad or Mozilla now.
I've been de-googling and setup my proton mail last week. I'll look for other options.
Fox and Roku, everyone's two favourite small companies!
He went after big tech as a punishment for fact checking the bullshit coming from his administration and his followers. That was it.
Now that all big tech has turned away from democrats (probably as punishment for their antitrust lawsuits), we will see a much different perspective from the Trump administration.
Fuck me, I now feel like a clown for taking advantage of that lifetime subscription I bought a couple of months back.
well at least they won't get any money for it
Why can't we have nice things?
well this makes me slightly less fomo'd after going for tuta and mullvad- but i'm probably jinxing it rn ;-;
Is he right about the start of the anti-trust action ?
People somehow still surprised by Switzerland being neutral on Naziism
I don't think we can be blamed for Andy Yang. He's Taiwanese and studied in the US. It seems he just worked at CERN and that's why he was in Switzerland when he started Proton.
