A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Run your own goddamn email server. Don't trust these big fat companies.
Thanks. Like the sentiment. Yes I can do this but my wife cannot. So this option is out. It needs to be a solution that she can maintain alone if something happens to me. This concern gets a lot more real as one gets older.
Email in itself is an outdated protocol. Even if you're selfhosting it, and have the best opsec practices; if the other person uses gmail then you're fucked anyway.
Security is getting better on the transport side.

Then again, it's useful to filter out the gmail zombies.
