I wanted to make my own email server so I could be independent from big tech’s monopoly in email. I quickly found out that it was not worth it.
It was such a pain in the ass to set up, and I couldn’t send emails to my GMail account because my home-rolled email looked too sus to GMail’s filters.
So… I gave up. On a recommendation from someone else, I started my free trial of Fastmail and got it set up. After configuring my domain’s DNS records, it works flawlessly!
Feel free to send me emails through my listed email: kebokyo@eleboog.com . Plaintext, personal emails are prefered.
Next on my list is getting PeerTube up and running and possibly getting a Fediverse instance going as well. I also need to use the Fediverse a little more lol. Currently I’m at @kebokyo@plush.city opens in a new tab , so feel free to hit me up on there!
so yee, cya later
p.s. i love how the day after i get the email set up, someone emails me out of the blue hehe
p.p.s. if you sent me an email within the past few months, send it again bc i probably didn’t get it ;w;
