- Comment on Good self-hosted webmail client? 22 hours ago:
The usual ones are RoundCube and SnappyMail (which is a fork of deprecated RainLoop). I’m hosting SnappyMail to access my Dovecot when no other mail client is handy.
- Comment on Good self-hosted webmail client? 22 hours ago:
Sogo seems to be a whole groupware, i.e. including a mail server, calendar, etc…
I understand that OP is looking for a mail client only.

- Comment on How To: Automate version update for your selfhosted Docker containers with Gitea, Renovate, and Komodo 1 day ago:
Yes, I’ve set
WATCHTOWER_RUN_ONCEand run it manually (letting it download and automatically apply the updates) when I find time. In the rare case something breaks, I can fix it immediately or roll back the broken container by setting the label to the previous version. - Comment on GitHub - outerbase/studio: A lightweight Database GUI in your browser.

How does it compare to Adminer?
- Comment on How To: Automate version update for your selfhosted Docker containers with Gitea, Renovate, and Komodo 1 day ago:
I’ve just set WatchTower to one-shot runs and whenever I have some time to fix eventual issues, I start the WatchTower container, it’ll pull any updates and stop again. No need to mess with my compose files (all set to
latest) and no need for pull requests or similar. - Comment on Recommend EU webhosting provider to replace DreamHost? 3 days ago:
UberSpace. Managed hosts, but you get SSH access and they have a manual for the basics as well as user-contributed guides for specifics.
It’s ran by nerds and the only limit is your allotted disk space (10GB by default). Unlimited email accounts, unlimited aliases, etc.
“Pay what you can afford” model starting at 5€/month.
- Comment on Massive X data leak affects over 200 million users. 1 week ago:
Exactly! I add a random string to each email address, too, so you can’t just guess other addresses. So, it’s usually something similar to
lemmy-r4nd0m@mydomain.me. And, whenever a breach happens, I’ll generate a new random part and set that as my email address and invalidate the old one. Until the next breach. (Looking at you, LinkedIn…) - Comment on Risks of self-hosting a public-facing forum? 1 week ago:
Be aware that some countries make you liable for what people post on your forum.
Also, have you looked at Discourse? There are some nice apps that work with it and make the experience on mobile slightly better.
- Comment on Massive X data leak affects over 200 million users. 1 week ago:
My email provider allows for unlimited aliases. So, while I have 600+ email addresses, emails to them all end up in the same mailbox.
The accounts for all the websites and services (with their specific email address) are in a KeePass database and they all have random passwords, too.
The only small issue is when you have to contact support of some service. Then, I have to configure the specific email address in my client so they can match that to my account with them. But most email clients allow multiple sender addresses without having to fiddle with the rest of the settings.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 week ago:
I don’t remember whether it was some news article or a discussion thread. But other people also suggested this might help during therapy and/or rehab. And they had the same argument in that nobody gets harmed in creating these.
As for uses outside of controlled therapy, I’d be afraid it might make people want the “real thing” at some point. And, as others already pointed out: Good luck proving to your local police that those photos on your laptop are all “fake”.
- Comment on Massive X data leak affects over 200 million users. 1 week ago:
This vulnerability made it possible to collect user data simply by knowing someone’s email address or phone number.
Another example of where it pays off to have separate email addresses/aliases for every website/service you use.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 1 week ago:
If I interpret this toot correctly, there wasn’t a direct commit from a sanctioned region, but one developer was in one of those regions for a short while quite some time ago. And he may have been flagged because of this.
- Comment on Apple barred from Google antitrust trial, putting $20 billion search deal on the line 2 weeks ago:
That’s why I self-host SearXNG. And have enabled several other “underdog” search engines like Mojeek and Marginalia. On my devices I’m using Redirect Web for Safari to send any search request to Ecosia (configured in my Safaris) to my SearXNG instance. Works great for me!

- Comment on Apple sued for false advertising over Apple Intelligence. 2 weeks ago:
If you’ve just enabled Apple Intelligence, it’ll also go through all your Photos and detect objects, faces, pets, POIs, settings, etc… Depending on the amount of photos, this can take a few days to complete. (Should only happen while the phone is connected to a charger, though.) During that time, some sluggishness is to be expected. However, after a few days, the phone should be snappy again.
At least I can’t notice any such issues on my 16 Pro. And I’m using AI since it became available in the Betas here in the UK.

- Comment on What host names do you use? 4 weeks ago:
I might rename them. So, e.g. if I’d add another Pi5, the existing one would become
rpi5-1and the new onerpi5-2. - Comment on What host names do you use? 4 weeks ago:

- Comment on NUT UPS support question 1 month ago:
The xxx3 seems to be a slightly upgraded version that adds a colour LCD and USB charging ports. Apart from that, it seems to have the same features as the one without the

Did you configure NAT to the service(s) and/or DMZ to your internal server in your ISP’s router?
Not allowing even ping seems like it is against any sane networking configuration.
- Comment on Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?! 1 month ago:
After having been shafted by sublime text I will never believe anything called a “lifetime subscription” is such.
Care to elaborate?
AFAIR SublimeText licenses are always only for a specific major version. And they sometimes might work for the next major version. So, I guess you’ve just installed a newer version for which your lifetime license isn’t valid anymore.
- Comment on Raspberry Pi4 continuous selfhosted server operations 1 month ago:
I’ve got the same Geekworm cases for all my Raspberries. Added some extra thermal pads in some strategic places and have them all without any active cooling at room temperature (20-21℃). They barely go over 55℃:
The 3B+ has soft-throttling (can be disabled) starting at 60℃, full throttling at 70°C. The 4 starts throttling at 80℃ and the 5 at 85℃. So, with that completely passive cooling I’m still far away from these margins. No need for any moving parts that will make noise at some point in the future.
Also, since the cases have ribs on both sides, I have my Pis standing upright to hopefully make use of the stack effect - which might contribute to the slightly lower than OP’s values.
