Good to know, thank you. I looked into proton for my primary mail account, but I didn't think of it for that purpose.

Even if it's a bit different. It's always nice to see what's out there. I will definitively look into it.
Sure - but that would be another thing to self-host - because I have at least 5 machines which need to send, and I have a dynamic IP address - so it would involve updating the MX records via DNS API for at least 5 sub domains.
To be honest, I'm a KISS kind of guy - not everything technical possible or imaginable is worthwhile. Especially if it's such a crucial part like alert monitoring. I want it done simple, secure, without caveats and keeping the complexity on the lowest level possible.
Many people underestimate it, my goto for a fast an reliable file share service, which does just that, is production ready, has great client software and uses just few resources.

Biometric authentication methods are in general not very secure. Besides the fact there are a whole lot of procedures to fake/ spoof the biometric data. Once breached - you can not change your biometrics that easy. Keys and passwords can easily be replaced.
Further, if you use biometric auth for a lot of services you open your self to a single point of attack - that is pretty similar using the same password for many services. And we don’t do that!
Thanks for the info about the .zip domain. Totally missed that.
True, but for playing around with lemmy and doing some test's it's ideal - and it's free! In case you are serious about hosting a lemmy instance, there should be at least some sort of backup/ disaster recovery strategy in place.
I’m not sure if it’s still valid, but Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) had a 4 vCPU, 24 GB RAM, 200 GB HDD free tier. No costs, ever! You could sign up there and setup an even bigger instance.
I know it’s been mentioned before - but plain Wireguard is my way to go. KISS - keep it simple, stupid! setup might be a little bit of a learning curve, but once you got it for one device, others aren’t a big issue.
I had a CA, with OpenVPN, but that’s to much for a small setup like remote access to your home network.
Use it on iOS, Ubuntu and Windows to access my home services and DNS (Split-Tunnel).
It’s a pretty easy setup on OpenWrt. A quick look into the fresh tomato wiki tells me, that it shouldn’t be to complicated to achieve on your router (firmware). If you need help with setting Wireguard up, let me know, I’m happy to help out.
Codeberg is using Forgejo, basically Gitea. You can change the editor, if you like with other editors if you host Forgejo or Gitea yourself. Features like CI/CD can be deactivated.
Funny 😄 pretty much asked myself the same thing, the day before yesterday.
Specifically, I have been looking for encrypted mail hosters supporting your own domain. Also, hosting in Europe on dedicated Hardware (or at least guaranteed European VPS), GDPR compliance and some sort of certification/ verification of the said requirements and their claims!
What I came up with:
- mailbox.org (never heard of it before, but pretty much has your requirements covered) <- Tor nodes, anonymous accounts(no personal data at all!)
- proton mail
- Tutanota (pretty young - but interesting concept)
I won’t cite their individual plans - that’s for you to figure out in detail.
The thing that bugs me with the Proton Mail and Tutanota, to effectively make use of their threat model/ encryption you have to use their Apps/ Software. EDIT: I’m currently using Microsoft365 - with it you are pretty much locked in - I fear with Proton or Tutanota it’s the same. Migrating is a pain.
I’m trying mailbox.org at the moment - they got a 30-free trail.
I thought about self-hosting, but first of all I got a dynamic IP. Further I want a solution which has roughly 98% availability and 99,99% reliability, because this service tells me if everything burns/ goes awry. That's not the service I'd like to "toy" with. And hosting any kind of mail service with 98% availability and 99,99% reliability, automatic DKIM roll-over etc. is a tough nut. Even VPS cost's seem higher than just Amazon SES.
