Nevermind. After days of back and forth with them they said that they only have that feature available to big companies that have an account with them for a year or more, which is definitely annoying. I’m going to give Brevo a shot next, I heard someone mention them in a thread before about this. It looks like their free tier allows for 300 emails a day. I’ll let you know how that goes if you are still looking.

I bet this happens to a lot of people unless they get sucked into a YouTube/truthsocial echochamber rabbit hole.

Oh wow that looks like it might be perfect thanks so much! I just switched to a random other instance but luckily switching instances on Mastodon is easy. Especially since I don’t post there much. Ill move there now, thanks again!

Another reason to move away from companies that harvest and sell your data as much as possible.

I am in the exact same boat. I just switched to Proton as it looked like they had these features right away. But it turns out you have to explain what you want to use smtp for before they allow you to generate tokens. Which is probably due to them attracting a high amount of scammers due to their really good privacy. So I can understand but it is a tad annoying. If you are willing to wait I’d give them a try. Their business plan is cheaper than googles and gives you a lot and they are open source.

The Other Guys

I definitely agree with that. But at the same time this is almost as good a cause as any for all our bloated military budget to go to. Besides Ukraine.

For news and search I have no idea. But I’ve been moving email, calander, drive, and password manager over to Proton. Im just starting with it but you definitely give up some convenience for the peace of mind.

Amazing, thank you!

Nothing like a well trained algorithm haha. Although I’ve been trying to de-google myself as much as possible as well.

Yeah, I’m in a similar boat with some of the communities I’m trying to start. But I did it before with a subreddit and it was similar. It was a very very long time of only me posting before other people joined in. But with Lemmy it seems to be going a bit faster at least. I’m sure slowly over time more and more people will join and find their niches. Good luck!

I would also like to know.

oh, nice!

I mean I know how I could. I’m asking how you all do. Or what news websites are favorites.

Awesome! No problem!

Hell yeah!

There’s also !psychedelic_artwork@psychedelia.ink and !spirituality@psychedelia.ink on an instance I host if anyone is interested in those niches. But all in all this is a super amazing list thanks for taking the time to put it together!

The site tells you that its not secure when you go to send a message.

Oh nice ill definitely have to try it next time Im down there. Thanks!
