Neil HenningAnyone using proton mail with a custom domain? Still trying to land on a good owned domain email provider.
Josh Simmons@neilhenning I was, it was fine, but I switched to fastmail when proton went Full AI
@dotstdy do you recommend fastmail then? I was worried about it being US.
Martin Weber@neilhenning @dotstdy I switched to Fastmail. Proton sucked. Fastmail is Australian IIRC.
@martinweber @neilhenning yeah it's Australian owned, legally that's pretty much the same as US if you're worried about having your emails seized by the US government or just general privacy, but I don't really worry too much about that. If there was an EU fastmail equivalent I'd probably chose that instead but afaik there isn't one. :(
Bartosz Taudul@dotstdy @martinweber @neilhenning I think https://mailbox.org is based in Germany, but their UI looks bad and the service they offer is an all-in-one solution when I only want an email box.
A propos privacy, Proton has servers in US now, I think? And their security is basically "we won't deploy javascript that sends us your decrypt key, trust us!"
.san@wolfpld @dotstdy @martinweber @neilhenning I’ve settled on Soverin, a privacy first email provider based in the Netherlands, and although basic in features happy with the service.
Grégory Pakosz@san @wolfpld @dotstdy @martinweber @neilhenning Sometimes I ponder about configuring a VPS with exim + dovecot hosted in the EU. Doesn’t seem less secure than anything owned by some company
@gpakosz @san @dotstdy @martinweber @neilhenning You will have nothing delivered. All your mail will either go directly to spam, or even will be silently dropped.
@gpakosz @san @dotstdy @martinweber @neilhenning You need to be on big tech white list. You won't be.
