      A month ago, I was very close to starting a company subscription, mostly for emails. Ended up going with Hetzner where I’ve got my server anyway and their email service is 100 accounts for the price of (their web hosting service), whereas gsuite and proton wanted about the same amount for every user.

      It’s not a significant amount for single digit users, but I’m just glad it’s not going to someone publicly supporting Trump.

        Same with web.de/GMX in Germany. I never quite understood why people are willing to pay so much money for email subscriptions when they can get whole webhosting packages for half the price. For some its probably lazyness and for others its the lack of knowledge that webhosting includes emailsy

          For me it was the lack of knowledge tbh. I did already have a Hetzner VPS, but that doesn’t come with emails - I had to also add in the web hosting, which I’m currently not using (yet).

            In theory, you could install Plesk, cpanel or anything similiar to easily manage emails on a VPS, but this comes with all the administrative tasks of keeping your server up to date.

        The moon was still up there before the final three days. This one’s been there for over two months!

    Before the election I was so certain the doomscrolling would soon be at an end.

    What presidency? This is just a bad dream, it’ll all be over soon, we’ll wake up, and everything would be back to normal. Right?

      Sure. But when you wake up you’ll be several years older, on a ventilator, and handcuffed to your hospital bed until you set up a payment plan.

        Nothing to do with that. It’s the perception. People think he will be good for crypto, just like Microsoft or Apple or Google: most people think that because they are big, whatever they make will be good.

          Until suddenly perceptions change and you’re caught flat-footed. Then the prices crash and you’re left holding the bag.

          It’s all gambling. Have fun, don’t blow all your savings.
