I know there are alternatives like proton mail, tutamail, mailbox.org, etc… But what would be the issue if I create an email using my personal domain, stored in my hosting… maybe encryption? It seems that no-one even consider this option, but I am not sure why…
What would you suggest?

Yeah,but please don’t use Proton unless you are aware of their drawbacks and marketing lies. (I am not counting the tweet here…)
Or go through my post history,I have explained multiple times here why proton is not an ideal choice.
Infomaniak or mailbox org might be worth a consideration as well
But why?

It’s not THAT bad. Certainly more complicated than before. I don’t think it requires that much upkeep. But this time around it took around 1 month to get it stable. Then I’m coasting for the time being.
But yes, unless you have a specific use case or strong desire, dont.
Email is so important. If you don’t have a stable way to do it and something goes down, you’re SOL and you are responsible

I can read his tweet. It makes absolutely no sense as his words are the literal opposite of what is really happening right in front of everyone’s eyes. The only explanation is he is sucking up to the party that is dismantling our democracy for his own financial gain.
He stands to gain nothing from this. This is a swizz company.

The other user already shared some article with lots of historical data, both words and actions, that should give a better picture. Anyway, since you decided to ignore all that, then there is also to say that the tweet was a speculation made months ago on a topic where nothing happened yet (or at least, I haven’t read any news about antitrust in the last month). I don’t think anything will happen, but anyway that makes it at most naive.

Why you keep posting me articles about the FTC, when the appointee in this discussion was for the department of justice, and has been confirmed a week ago (on 11th I think)?

This is more relevant as the topic was antitrust and breaking monopolies. This still happened before Slater was officially confirmed, and it’s something that was not started now. But at least is relevant.

Where did you dig this up?
