It’s time to de-Google, de-amazon, de-Microsoft, de-apple, etc.

Now? As if they were so ethical all those decades before.

You know what they say about the best time to plant trees. It applies to many things.

It has been time for that, long ago. Why did you have to wait for everything to go south?

[–] Geodad@lemm.ee 8 points 23 hours ago

I did it a long time ago. The best time to change was 5-10 years ago. The second best time is now.

Self hosting your email server, are you? How many hours a month does that take?

[–] CaptSpify@lemmy.today 1 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

I do. It takes about 1 hour every 3 months. It's pretty easy, actually

I use Tutanota for my email

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Would you rather people switch to non google services or think that since they are all equally evil they might as well keep using the same service.

Did Google ever offer an open source client for the email?
