  • My system is not ideal, but I have a lifetime deal with Proton Pass for $1 a month that I hope they never change because if they do, I’m getting off of Proton.

    Currently, I have a custom domain that I use with Tuta, but I will most likely switch to a provider that is less secure and more compatible with third-party clients after my year of subscription is up.

    I also have a decade plus of email history on Gmail that I need to search through all the time and people still send me emails to my Gmail account.

    Ideally, I would have a second custom domain for my Proton Pass email forwarding service, so that I’m not giving spammers my actual domain that I care about.

    Also, ideally, I would have a self-hosted email server and client setup where I could see all my email addresses, including an archive of all my Gmail history, in one place, and it would sync changes from clients back to the central server. But I don’t know if that exists.












  • I tried Tudor and proton’s free tier, and I couldn’t deal with how they can’t use a normal email client.

    On the other hand, I’ve been trying to use Thunderbird with my next cloud calendar and it keeps hanging for me on Ubuntu. So maybe trying to use Thunderbird is a recipe for disaster as well. I don’t know what to do.
