A historical review of the multi-decade centralization and capture of the email protocol.

Interesting history and analysis of SMTP’s history. How can we prevent fedi and other open protocols from suffering the same fates?

    I never run a mail server but Google already placing my mail sent via my xyz domain hosted on proton sliently.

    I guess running my own will be a lot worst.

    P.S. I know that’s a bad TLD choice, and I’m planning to migrate, but that will take a lots of time and work to the point I wonders if that worth it as I don’t sent many anyways.

      Don’t even bother with an xyz domain. Pay for something useful, its not expensive via Namecheap or Porkbun
