Tbh because it was the one shared on Reddit. Though if you have the right browser extensions when I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

Email was originally one of the first federated systems. Anyone can host a server and send messages back and forth from other servers with a set standard. That basically is federation.

There is no email service that exists without a terms of use and privacy policy. I still feel everyone overreacted about Firefox. It’s funnier how many people said they switched to Brave because of it and all the super shady stuff Brave has done.

openSUSE tumbleweed changed to using it and I think it works well.
