    You dont know how the sender or recipient handles your mail, but handling your own with encryption is still a good practice.

    An email provider can have an entire database of all your emails (e.g. Google with Gmail), which more valuable than individual people or companies having access to only a few related ones.

    There’s also PGP support with some providers, so you could set-up encrypted emailing with people if that’s important to you.

    Either way, getting away from the big providers is a good move, I’d at least want my inbox encrypted though, like Proton or others do.

    Fully encrypted email should have been made standard a long time ago.


  • If you replaced Forgejo with GitHub then I would understand, but Forgejo isn’t a massive organization with hundreds of hired employees, it’s run by people in their spare time with the option of donations.

    Anyone can help contribute, instead of doing that, this guy decided to try and get some clout by being an asshole because he is butthurt about some other interaction. If this guy went about it the proper way and then still got no answer or fix after months, then I would understand more, but he didn’t.
