They even have a newsgroup service for the tilde community. It's not full on Usenet and there aren't any hosted files, but it's a nice community feature.

You get a gigabyte soft cap (three gig hard cap and a week grace period to get back to soft cap) but it actually talks to google, for the time being, and I've been making an attempt at migrating to the point of using gmail as a 'talking ot my republican family' and 'spam' account.

Remember. This is a hobbiest community. Personal recommendation is using tilde.club for emails, and spread your other needs across other tilde servers.

Yes commandline interaction is required.

Save your SSH keys not just on your computer but in a couple other secure places. If you have to pull them from backup, remember to reset the file's permissions otherwise SSH won't like them. Setting up a password backup is very helpful here especially since that will let you use your mail address with apps such as k-9 on android, or claws/thunderbird/outlook for desktop.

SDF's been, in my experiance, less sure? I don't want to talk trash about what is effectivly pubnix's grandaddy. I'm going to put money in the pot because I want that place to keep running, but i view it more as curiosity than cornerstone.
