I know the CEO dug himself a pretty deep hole recently.

I had been meaning to switch all the services I currently use over to proton - but his remarks gave me pause.

Is it still worth considering?

Yeah, been strongly considering that recently as well but I have a lot to learn.

I really want to have a custom domain, murena seems to have everything that I'm looking for, if I wanted to have a custom domain still I'd have to self host.

I've heard that self hosting can lead to a bunch of email getting snagged in spam filters. In regards to self-hostijg I'm definitly in the unconscious ignorance (I don't know what I don't know) phase of it.

I have a custom domain added to Tuta. Works fine for the last 2 years. If something goes haywire at any point, ⚓ up and I'm gone.

I'm interested in self hosting a couple of services, Immich, Navidrome, Nextcloud, but email ain't one of them. Personal one I use mostly for registrations and shopping confirmations
