Interesting history and analysis of SMTP's history. How can we prevent fedi and other open protocols from suffering the same fates?

I never run a mail server but Google already placing my mail sent via my xyz domain hosted on proton to spam folder silently.

I guess running my own will be a lot worst.

P.S. I know that's a bad TLD choice, and I'm planning to migrate, but that will take a lots of time and work to the point I wonders if that worth it as I don't sent many anyways.

Don't even bother with an xyz domain. Pay for something useful, its not expensive via Namecheap or Porkbun

I bought it about a year after general availability when I'm still in college, and doesn't know it will be this bad.
