    Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake – you’ll lose the opportunity to take notes and copy them.

    Yeah … might just end up going with something self-administered on my own domain at this point.

    Currently trying to set up Mailfence, but they seem to be getting pissy about me using a VPN. Start a privacy-focused email service, then ban any user on a VPN … true genius.

      If you’re not in Germany, good luck. When I tried to sign up with them in the past, they blocked my account, as they said they do not allow US people to use them. But it is not just the US.

      Self-administered email is such a pain with blocklists (SORBS etc).

      Plus, if you’ve changed just to avoid AI slop you’d be spending a lot of hours validating that there is no AI code in your stack - else what’s the point of moving.

      All sounds horrible to me. I’d rather we make our voices heard to the business leaders in email that AI code is unwelcome and hopefully one to two change course. We’ll see if that happens of course…
