    Mailbox is so great for moving over a whole load of things away from google......email, calendar, contacts, online drive, etc.

    My most recent success has been to move to Ecosia for 90% of searches.

    I was looking to migrate my mails to a self-hosted Nextcloud instance, but Mailbox seems very appealing (and it would be cheaper than renting a VPS).

    My only questions are: is there a feature like Snooze (or Follow-up reminders in Nextcloud parlance), can you have a unified mailbox for every address you have, and is there a limit to the number of domains you can have?

    Don't know about Nextcloud. I don't have the expertise for self hosting email related stuff. I would end up with an unsafe setup or get my domain blacklisted or something. Privacy respecting solutions are so cheap anyway.

    I was asking if those features were available in Mailbox. They are in Nextcloud, but knowing that Mailbox has them would entice me to move there instead of self-hostin (I share the same fears as you tbh)

    I don't know all the answers to your use cases. I use my own domain, so anything sent to the domain comes to a single inbox anyway. I haven't tried with multiple email addresses.

    Don't know about snooze either because I use it exclusively through Thunderbird.

    They have a free trial. I suggest you make a dummy account and try out whatever you want and see if it fits your use.

    • Using Filen.io for backups of family photos and important documents.
    • Moved all my important mail to Tuta, but leaving โ€socialโ€ and unimportant โ€shoppingโ€ history in my now secondary mail which I check way less often.

    Qobuz for my music streaming. The high quality bitrate actually does make a difference, and the apps are rich and well-featured while also being free from chaff. They also pay artists more than any of the other streaming services.

    Returning to OpenProject for management of projects and tasks in my organisation. It had helped us previously a lot and I am super happy to have it fully restored soon ๐Ÿ˜

    Really in general that i watch and check my products more. I changed my mail provider to posteo and my OS to Cachy OS after i accidentally fried my Hard drives and had nothing much to lose anyways. I also managed to switch a good deal of my friends from discord to element for gaming and use gog next to steam now. But i also learned a great deal about different brands of household objects which i really never thought much about taking one or the other. Its quite fun and i am happy with the switch. Oh and yeah there is of course lemmy now. Only thing really missing for me is whatsapp and of course my whole smartphone which i guess i will change to an european product once it falls apart
