I can't quite pin down why exactly, but I've pivoted hard towards self-hosting these past few months. My biggest issue at the moment is finding a Gmail alternative.

@peveleigh @Doomguy I try to self-host as much as possible but with email I am willing to go with protonmail (and even pay for an upper tier). However I did learn how to set up my own email server on my raspberry pi using citadel which was pretty cool

@animist @peveleigh @Doomguy
I quite like Proton Mail. Self-hosted email can be tough because so many people are concentrated on only a handful of email providers, and so if your self-hosted email server gets flagged as spam it can be a huge pain in the ass to get off that list.
