It’s not a shame because of the amount of people we know, or how many people there are in total, that want to self-host email. It’s about the fact that it’s so difficult and hard to secure. I just wish it were simpler and more secure by default so that more people could roll their own and break free from ad-ridden and privacy-invading email services. 👍

Why?
I can count on no hands the amount of people I know who want to host their own email server on a residential connection (and that includes myself).

Very anecdotal. 🤷♂️
