        PurelyMail is great, my only fears are two:

        • its owner lives in the US, so the NSA can easily snoop into my mail
        • it’s managed by one single guy, so the bus factor is 1

          Yes that is true, but he lists every downtime with a analysis. And I am okay, with his track record. Plus, if he decides it is no longer worth his time or the bus gets to him, I just move my domain to another provider and dont suffer much. Plus he uses aws, so the infrastructure in itself should be pretty reliable.

          Depends. What do you think are using most of the people? I would wager something like gmail or outlook. So, even if you pay for an encrypted provider, chances are, 99% of your mail is unencrypted on some untrusted servers.

          If I have to communicate securely I use signal.

          Purelymail gives me the benefit of beeing super cheap and giving me many options on how to access my mails. Plus I can easily share my domain with my family.
