If you want to self-host it on a server, WriteFreely is as lean text focused platform. Lightweight and pretty easy to spin up and has some basic federation abilities.

If you're a bit more adventurous, I have a soft spot for Plume it is still under development so can be a little more work to get running, but it does have the ability to host images with a built in media manager and more federation interactivity between instances of Plume and also the rest of the fediverse.

If you're on a web host, can't go wrong with WordPress just make sure to use the cache plugins to make sure it is a bit less sluggish.

I had this problem once, Pagekite.net is made for exactly this. There are also some VPNs that provide static IPs - one in my part of the world is Franciliens

I just got their email, I get it now. SMTP is different to Bridge, but in my case I use Bridge to send SMTP from my apps (and also collect via IMAP) on the servers. It took a bit of creativity to get it to work like that

The only one I can think of isn't FOSS but is a smaller telecom in France who offers an OK priced service - OnOff for the same thing but not Google

That's really weird "Proton Mail Bridge is currently available for paid subscribers. Upgrade your account" and on the pricing page it has "Email client support (via IMAP/SMTP)" starting on the Mail Plus plan.

Although I've got the same problem with Bridge on MacOS it just stopped doing anything for no particular reason, it'll be worth contacting support to find out why (they're still working on mine)

Double edged sword that one, he seems really invested in what he created so it'll probably be OK. Then again, sometimes the bus driver doesn't see the red light

I've always really known in one way or another, but it was when I was about 12 I was able to be "oh yeah gay" which was certainly solidified when a friend wanted to experiment and I was a bit too enthusiastic to humour him. I had a lot of other things going on at the time where being gay was the least of my problems so never really had the struggle of self-acceptance.

(edit read a bit further down and removed a sentence as it didn't apply) People do also realise much later in life too, so the only real advice I can give is don't really try to slap a label on it to start off with, figure out what really vibes with you first and then figure out the definition of it later

Yeah the one thing I found with them (purelymail) is you really have to keep an eye on the billing usage, there will be a point where advanced pricing is better for you but if you dip below that you need to swap back to the basic pricing
