   “you know what you should do to replace protonmail? self-host your own email, it’s easy and secure!” statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

   - self-hosting mail is a fucking nightmare
   - you’ve kindly put all of your messages in a box you can and will be forced to open if you get into legal trouble

   self-host what you want, it’s a good thing in general, but don’t misrepresent the experience. you will have to think about opsec and administration. mail isn’t worth it.

     @zzt It is not dead simple, especially not for someone without technical expertise, but it's sooooo much easier than everyone makes it out to be, and the privacy and security properties are so much better.

     Absolutely host your own mail if you can. And even better, work to improve the tooling and recipes so more people can.
