@zigg I need to migrate my domain off of Google this month. It was a mistake to put it there in the first place. I’d really rather not have to go back to hosting my own again though.

@queerhackerwitch I'm in a similar boat. I've been spending part of the weekend looking at #ProtonMail only to find it's missing off-domain forwarding, which is unfortunately a blocker for me. cf. https://cybre.space/@zigg/99984297346474626

Some days I think we should just let email burn, but it's such a lingua franca for the Internet.

Not being able to forward mail off somewhere else for a given address is blocking me from using #ProtonMail to host my domain mail. If you think this might be a thing you want, maybe help me out and express that? https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-feedback/suggestions/15353520-forwarding-mail-from-protonmail

@zigg I’d say let it burn if we had a suitable replacement in progress. I don’t receive very much personal e-mail though, most of it is online shopping receipts, ebilling notifications, and the like.
