I definitely agree on that open source backend is great, but you still cannot verify that that's the code running on their servers. Open source frontend is much more important IMO.

Basically, it's saying, use Nextcloud, don't get fooled by these privacy-oriented sites that may have some sort of open source client to access the service, but is running on pure closed-source infrastructure. I would agree that it's smarter to use Nextcloud instead, but for email? Yeah, I'm not self-hosting that.

  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
