Bonus question: what email inbox client do you use?

    Fastmail, 100%. Reasons:

    • “Encrypted email” only works between encrypted providers. ProtonMail and Tutanota are both very inconvenient, and all I want is an email that’s not scanned for marketing.
    • Since 2018, ProtonMail kept getting worse, especially with the recent AI stuff. Dodged bullet, IMO.
    • $6/month = Custom domains, and any amount of emails under those domains. I can send and receive from any domain xxx@yyy [dot] lynndotpy [dot] dev, for example.
    • CalDav and CardDav provider = Contacts, calendar, and reminders sync. Works perfectly on iOS too, if you like that.

    It replaced my finnicky NextCloud for half the cost.

      PGP encrypted e-mail works regardless of the provider btw.

          yeah… it’s pretty hard to get non-techies to use encrypted mail. even proton’s encryption is pretty useless as it’s decrypted in their web client anyway.
