As far as I can see on their website, they don’t mention end to end encryption or zero-knowledge encryption. If that is true, it means that they are able to read all your emails (and so can the government if they order them to reveal the data). They sometimes use some pretty confusing marketing slag in general. It’s misleading because they advertise things like in-transit TLS encryption, which is standard nowadays. Even Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo and other mainstream email providers have this by default. This is nothing special and they hope that people think it means the same as E2EE. If you care about data ownership, you should also care about (end-to-end) encryption. Only when you are the only key holder, you can be sure that no one can access your private stuff.
Sure, you go ahead and try it out for yourself to see if it works. Just wanted to let you know that selfhosting an Email server is not easy. Regarding ethics, I like Proton because they support privacy, open source software, and they never sold out to VC. Their website is accessible via Tor, they accept Bitcoin payments and they actually care about their users. That’s probably the most ethical email provider you can find.
You need to update Pihole
They probably don’t allow email. Most VPS providers (even paid ones) block SMTP port 25.
I wouldn’t actually selfhost email, it’s not particularly easy and there are many issues you will probably encounter. I recommend ProtonMail, it’s $3.50/month if you only need email and for $8/month you also get calendar, cloud storage, a password manager and a great VPN. Also, they are very focused on privacy and encryption and their apps are open source. Alternatively you can go with IVPN or Mullvad, both are great. Digitalocean has been fine in my experience, have you had any issues with it?
Something like StackOverflow/StackExchange would be nice. Would also like to see a federated platform for designers/artists (some Dribbble or Adobe Behance alternative).
I was just curious. Use whatever works best for you.
Sure, but I don’t want to. SPAs are nice, but I also try to include a JS-free fallback solution that is loaded when the client doesn’t support Javascript. I think this is the best approach to web development. A good example for this is LocalMonero’s No-JS mode. You can use the toggle in the upper-left corner to disable all Javascript on the website, and it will still have most features. I love it.
When overpriced streaming services keep becoming worse and worse, it’s hard to avoid piracy
You mean XCP-ng?
Wouldn’t Linux be easier to manage and better in terms of performance?
Damn, fuck Windows. Fortunately I don’t have to use it.
The ONLY DNS server you should have set on your network is a/the PiHole(s).
That’s exactly what I do, since I never had any stability issues with my Pihole.
Windows calls them ‘preferred’ and ‘alternate’ DNS servers. That roughly translates to primary/secondary.
I understand the point of static websites, but Vue Router is pretty nice
Use something like AdGuard or NextDNS as your secondary resolver

If the machines are on the same network, try LocalSend
