I recently got a confused look when I said that I pay for my email provider (3€/mo, but 1€/mo would also work).
Many people don't realize that operating an email server creates cost and they pay with letting Google/Yahoo/… read and analyze their communication.
I operate my own email, as the network gods intended
I want to do it and habe been offputting it because im worried that im gonna fuck something up and bc i dont really know how
How do you get around websites that force you to use whitelisted domains? I had a self hosted email for a while and I was often considered spam.
I tell them to go fuck themselves. A more serious problem is that unless you sign up with a provider that has all of the encryption/verification stuff sorted out and a significant amount of outgoing mail, your messages will go straight to spam for everyone else.
