Yeah... so, the record high inequality is just nothing to think about, because suddenly we don't deserve to own a house for one life's worth of work...? What a joke take

17.66$ per hour in 1983 is equal to 50$ per hour today which is just a fine salary?

Well... no... I have been self hosting it for several years over multiple major versions now. Only for Files, Calendar and Deck though. It was a bit hard to set up, but reading the general Apache and PHP documentation helped a lot.

based.

And you can't even trust that - good luck finding hardware with open source schematic that is not ancient.

All processors have built-in spyware (Management Engine etc.), and that's not going to change, since there are only a few highly sophisticated factories in the world that can make them, and the factions controlling those have no interest in producing consumer grade spyware free hardware. Modern processors have become essential for weaponry and warfare, so this is not going to change, only get worse.

After the WhatsApp scandals, my trust in encryption is limited. I'm not a mathematician (which is a goddamn shame), and if there is a backdoor in the mathematics themselves, I wouldn't be able to catch it even if I read the source code. And there is always the possibility of decryption by quantum computers....

So where we store our data is very important, even if it is decrypted. Encryption is just a secondary defense, the primary is limiting the accessibility to the data itself. And where you store the data, and to whom you allow access, determines the accessibility

That makes absolutely no sense - at the very least, this is unimplementable for an email provider.

I am trusting someone for my data. Ownership belonging to the people running it, who just want to make a living, has the meaning that our interests are better aligned than a multinational ad agency or a nation state whose subject I not even am. That relationship is more healthy, the contract is clearer and more balanced.

This has made me to seriously consider leaving lemmy.world

Capitalism is a serious existantial threat to our ecosystem, rendering all our lives more meaningless with each passing day - all its enemies are my friends

But, however, just looking at the name... Lemmygrad, this rhetoric is just designed to hush everyone into the old trenches and that way keeping the capitalist death machine chugging along. To be the most effective, the truth of socialism has to rebranded and craftfully injected into new ideas. This is the only way forward.

So, good riddance I say!

Fastmail looks nice in terms of features/cost - it is also owned by the people who run it, which is a big green flag.

But I am in the same boat, looking for a new service, haven't made a switch yet

but better than Brave

The commenter I replied to was specifically asking for chrome based.

Isn't culture quite literally.... patterns... of ... behaviour??
