  • I ended up settling on Infomaniak’s kSuite after looking around. They’re a mid-sized registrar and hosting company.

    They’re partially employee owned (and I believe in the process of becoming fully owned by employees). I’ll grant their privacy policy is just standard EU/Swiss boilerplate, though (stuff like no sharing your data, etc., that you always find in EU paid services like this). GDPR compliance was all I was looking for.

    The web client looks nice and kDrive is affordably priced if you need a Google docs/photos/drive alternative.

    Edits: clarity and me refreshing my memory on their privacy policy


  • Self hosted email is its own can of worms. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone outside of experienced IT people. You’ll end up blacklisted before you send your first email if you do anything wrong (and there’s a lot that can go wrong), and it doesn’t solve any security problems email has.

    Anything sent over email just isn’t private. That goes for Proton customers when they send or receive anything from a non-Proton address too. The one thing privacy email providers can actually do is keep your inbox from being scanned by LLMs and advertisers. That doesn’t prevent the inboxes and outboxes of your contacts from being scanned, though.

    If you use email, the best thing you can do is be mindful of what kinds of information you send through it. Use aliases via services like simple login or anonaddy when possible. Having a leaked email is a security vulnerability. Once bad actors have your email, they now have half of what they need to breach multiple accounts.






  • Yeah, I was thinking about changing over, because while I like PopOS, it has some issues on my rig. It wasn’t as troublesome as Fedora, but laggy animations, Pop Shop crashing, and its very outdated version of GNOME were starting to frustrate me.

    I’m actually testing EndeavorOS in a live environment right now to get a feel for it! I’ve always been hesitant to try Arch in any form because my main Linux buddy warned me it was a quick way to ruin your system.

    I use this PC a lot, so I have no problem updating it several times a week or more. So fingers crossed I don’t screw it up lol.

    The most mask off one they had was the short they made celebrating Robert E. Lee. Unironically did the “slavery wasn’t that bad” bit in it. And there was a whole “Lee heroically killed John Brown and ended that evil abolitionist revolt”.

    Naturally this has made them DeSantis’ preferred curriculum.
