I dont want to repeat since that may just get my comment also removed, but I dont know if you can see the comment contents in the modlog or not.

Whats wrong with slavs? I agree with you about tha yanks part though.

Im not too sure about that, personally. Tbh i got them for free in a promotion when i bought my FP5 phone, and while I have used them, its not been much simply because at home on my PC ive got my regular headset, or if i want to do stuff like clean or cook I just switch to the external speakers, and at work, again, headset.

Pretty much all use cases for me involve my phone being in my pocket or hand (e.g. out in public) and in that case they've been really good to my experience. Granted I'm no audio guru so definitely check out reviews from those who are relating to that aspect if you (the reader) plan to get a set, I can't complain honestly.

I might have used mailcow on a vps I had for a short time for a project I was hosting on it. Not sure though, I can't remember. I'd much rather go with something simple that I don't need to micromanage, or that I don't need to worry that I've misconfigured hence won't be receiving mail, so when the time comes I'll probably be looking for solutions like the docker mailserver I linked to above, or similar.

Yeap exactly, I just replied to your other comment with basically this :D

I'd rather have something simple that works for now, and eventually when I am able to self-host my own email, I can look into and spend the effort securing everything.

The way I understand it from that video and the short time I've had to look this up, is that you need to handle the E2EE yourself.

Hmmm, just watched this video: https://piped.wireway.ch/watch?v=aat1q9VLDjk and if what is mentioned in it is true, its concerning, especially if they store emails on their server in plaintext, and it sometimes takes a long time for emails to arrive.

I considered it, and it looks really good, but the free plan only allows for 1GB storage. I see at the bottom of this page: https://disroot.org/services/email that they do offer paid storage increases, but I don't see if thats the monthly, annual, or lifetime charge. Do you know?

Dragged in by the US. One more reason to cut ties and go our separate ways.

It is organised crime. Its a whole black market industry over here
