    I’ve got a couple VPSes, hosting

    • Mailcow, because email is identity.
    • Asterisk, because phone #s are also identity.
    • Matrix-Synapse, for personal messaging even though XMPP is probably better.
    • ttrss, even though it’s junk software with a jerk developer.
    • A bunch of self-developed web apps

    Self hosting email is obnoxious, but it’s also one of the only remnants of the traditional distributed internet that’s still broadly accepted.

      I just got going on matrix and I wish there were better XMPP iOS apps. Chat services without friends don’t work and bad iOS apps keeps people away. After all this time there isn’t a good adoption of XMPP for iOS except iMessage I guess.

        @GregoryTheGreat @beigegull I’ve got a few friends using xmpp apps on iOS, mostly snikket (which is a rebranded siskin). Works well, notifications work as they should, so does audio/video calling, and e2ee works too of course. Monal has apparently gotten better recently

      @beigegull @devve Totally agree that your email is basically your de facto identity online. I didn’t have the heart to fully host my own mail server but I made the decision to ditch gmail and use my own domain with a hosted provider. I am hosting my own IMAP server so the plan will be to work my way up to where you are eventually…
