Purely Mail, yes; so long as you're comfortable with one guy running the service.
Thunderbird for desktop and K-9 for Andriod. Only because they were the most recommended and completely fit my needs.

Yeah, there are plenty of stupid takes and ass-backward ideas here too
How did you collect/gain access to this data?
Thank Mr Skeltal
Based take imo. I think many posters fail realize the insane amount of money steam makes Valve. Rough estimates are that Steam sold 400 million games last year. Average cost for a game is ~$15.5. Steam has a platform fee of 30%. That means that, roughly, Steam made Valve ~1.86 billion dollars just through the sell of games. Not considering microtransactions or hardware sells. Reportedly, Valve made 1 billion dollars just off cases from CS2 crate openings. Let's just give Valve the benefit of the doubt and assume they made $5 billion dollars last year.
Impressive, but honestly not that impressive when you consider that Xbox brought in 18 billion and PlayStation brought in 30 billion last year. However, if you factor in that Xbox has a head count of ~$20,100 and Sony has one of ~12,700. While Valve has a head count of about ~400. We see that Xbox and Sony are bringing in about $900K and $2.4M per head respectively. Valve is bring in 12.5M per head. Plus Xbox and PlayStation have multiple studios and campuses. While I believe Valve only has the 1 or 2 campuses and they are their only studio.
My point being that, Valve has a ton of liquid cash for investment and growth opportunities. I'd wager Valve brought in more than 5 Billion last year, but with them being a private company, it's hard to pin down what exactly they could've made.
Steam doesn't control the quality of remasters. That's up to publishers. I'm not the most active gamer and might have missed something, but didn't valve release a major revamp to the way the Library and Store were layed out in the past year or two? They also recently expanded family sharing and remote co-op. The only L I can remember in recent memory is the whole "You can't leave your games to another person when you die"
Have you heard about moonlight and sunshine? You might be interested in that
It's a bit reductionist to boil Obama down to the shit implementation of Obamacare that the GOP killed in the womb. I encourage you to read on it. TL;DR, it was gonna be pretty good, but the GOP threw a fit that it was going to be a win for Dems and tanked it. You're also leaving out the fact that Obama expanded gay rights and got talking about climate change on a policy level. Should both of those things happened sooner? Yes, but that's letting perfect be the enemy of good.
Biden isn't amazing and honestly, I don't care for him much. However, I doubt he letting the genocide in Gaza happen for profits. With the Dem's own party, Israel is a divisive issue and I'm sure he's having to tread carefully so it doesn't shoot in the foot later because politicians are scummy petty people
My only issue with piracy is it doesn't add to the number of streams. So it might cause some studios to cancel shows they don't think are performing well.
Not only losers, they are weird
