Yes. I host my own using Mailu.io. With the proper records, you will be able to send emails to any big email provider (proton, gmail, outlook). You need to pick a good TLD (.com, .net, .org, etc) so you don't get your email thrown into the spam folder immediately.

If you buy a domain now, you will probably get on the Spamhaus blacklist, which every big email service seems to use (again, proton, gmail, outlook, and probably others), so you will need to wait a few months and keep a good spam record (well, don't send spam emails obviously and keep your email server with the proper configurations).

Also, pick a good VPS provider (No vultr, no linode) with low levels of abuse, because if you setup your email server in an IP range with a lot of abusers, you may get your email flagged. (You can check that using https://www.uceprotect.net/en/rblcheck.php, but I'm not sure if uceprotect is trustable).

[–] Fijxu@programming.dev 34 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Bro is a fucking TV. Literally no one NEEDS AI on their TV. It may be a useful feature but will someone ever use it? I doubt so. This is just a way to inflate the price of the TV adding a feature that doesn't even need to be on a TV.

Is DuckDuckGo/Bing still viable for piracy? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[–] Fijxu@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think so? It's pretty solid and it works well overall. Anything is better than Google or Bing for your online privacy. If you want more privacy, you can try using SearxNG or 4get

Does Google uses Google Chrome users to discover new unindexed pages? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] Fijxu@programming.dev 7 points 2 months ago

That makes perfect sense since Google Chrome has safe search enabled by default and most people don't bother about changing their settings.

Does Google uses Google Chrome users to discover new unindexed pages? (programming.dev)

This is not a long post, but I wanted to post this somewhere. This may be useful if someone is doing an article about Google or something like that.

While I was changing some things in my server configuration, some user accessed a public folder on my site, I was looking at the access logs of it at the time, everything completely normal up to that point until 10 SECONDS AFTER the user request, a request coming from a Google IP address with Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html user-agent hits the same public folder. Then I noticed that the user-agent of the user that accessed that folder was Chrome/131.0.0.0.

I have a subdomain and there is some folders of that subdomain that are actually indexed on the Google search engine, but that specific public folder doesn't appear to be indexed at all and it doesn't show up on searches.

May be that google uses Google Chrome users to discover unindexed paths of the internet and add them to their index?

I know it doesn't sound very shocking because most people here know that Google Chrome is a privacy nightmare and it should be avoided at all times, but I never saw this type of behavior on articles about "why you should avoid Google Chrome" or similar.

I'm not against anyone scrapping the page either since it's public anyways, but the fact they discover new pages of the internet making use of Google Chrome impressed me a little.

Edit: Fixed a typo

The real history behind the Lunix operating system (programming.dev)
 

BSD, Lunix, Debian and Mandrake are all versions of an illegal hacker operation system, invented by a Soviet computer hacker named Linyos Torovoltos, before the Russians lost the Cold War. It is based on a program called "xenix", which was written by Microsoft for the US government. These programs are used by hackers to break into other people's computer systems to steal credit card numbers. They may also be used to break into people's stereos to steal their music, using the 'mp3' program. Torovoltos is a notorious hacker, responsible for writing many hacker programs, such as 'telnet', which is used by hackers to connect to machines on the internet without using a telephone.
