"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

Kind of I guess? i don't use these features.
Oh, also, they don't really implement e2e email encryption, which is kinda ironic. Your emails are stored encrypted, and e2e encrypted when sent to other tuta users, but to everyone else, the only way to send an e2e encrypted message is a normal email with a password protected link.
Tuta argues that their system is more secure/private, since pgp doesn't encrypt metadata. I'd argue that not supporting pgp means you aren't serious about encryption. It might be in theory less private, but it's the one encryption standard people actually use for email, and not supporting it excludes their user from sending e2e encrypted mail in a sensible way, and from receiving it at all, unless all their contacts also use tuta. Which might be the point.
What would you recommend then?
I have my own domain, so I need a provider that can have custom domains.
I'm with Proton for my private addresses right now, but while they do allow for pgp, they're guilty of many of the same practices as tuta is, and I might go elsewhere when my contract is up. The reason I'm still there is that they do implement pgp, so I haven't had strong enough incentive to switch.
I have good experiences with Mailbox.org. I heard good things about Posteo, runbox, and start mail, but haven't tried either of them personally.
