My Gmail just turned 20 years old, AITA for kicking it out and moving in with Proton Mail?

    For anyone using a custom domain, or thinking about it, read this: https://dmarcly.com/blog/how-to-implement-dmarc-dkim-spf-to-stop-email-spoofing-phishing-the-definitive-guide

    Without these records you’re a lot more likely to go to spam, or get rejected outright. If you have questions about it, ask here or DM me and I’ll be glad to help.

      Recently I added a custom domain to my protonmail account and during the procedure it makes you do this steps (adding SPD, DKIM and DMARC) to pass all the steps. They tell you exactly what records you have to add, where to add them and what the content should be. These guys are great

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      https://piped.video/iH626CXyNtE

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

        Honest question: how many email-havers do you think know what GPG is?

          If they don’t know what GPG is then why are they using Proton?
