As a follow-up to a recent post about mail privacy, I thought it would be interesting to see what mail setup you have.

Your recommendations may also help people newer to this trend to make a switch.

Interesting information:
  • Mail provider
  • Multiple emails? Aliases?
  • Password manager?
  • All eggs in one basket or decentralized?
  • Self host?

If anyone has a good recommendation outside of the typical ones, we’ll work on adding it to the upcoming wiki.

    I use Fastmail, previously used Proton, Mailbox and Disroot.

    I have an email for IRL and one for online as well as some “masked emails” (Fastmail’s equivalent of aliasing) for services I don’t trust. I’m still transitioning away from Addy for email aliasing.

    I currently use Bitwarden although I have been looking into 1Password and KeePass.

    Decentralized, Fastmail, Mullvad, Bitwarden and Ente Auth.

    Self hosting email is hell from what I’ve heard and I currently don’t have the resources to do that anyways.

    Self hosted. It’s not that hard, one of those fire and forget services that require 10 minutes a month to support. Some time ago I’ve also tried mailu and mailcow instead of doing it by hand, they are cool if a bit opaque.

    I use disroot as a temporary provider.

    I use simplelogin for aliases.

    Bitwarden is my go to password manager.

    I prefer decentralized but i use disroot for cloud and email (again, temporary 🤠)

    I’d self host if i had an old computer but even then i’d somehow damage it lmao.

    I’d use disroot permanently if it actually had encryption and sane pricing.
