I though Orion was free to use?

I have just changed from fastmail (Australian owned, but hosted in the US) to mailbox.org (German owned and hosted, as I understand it).

The reasoning is that I didn't want my email provider to be reliant on a US hosting service. This graphic has fastmail as a preferred choice though, and doesn't mention mailbox.org at all.

Spotify donates to Trump and is overall horrible.

Deezer is a French alternative to Spotify, it pays artists a little bit more. https://www.musictrendz.com/post/which-streaming-service-pays-artists-the-most

Spotify doesn’t belong in there at or or in the left being transitioned to another.

And they unironically say to join them on reddit.

Of all the alternatives for gmail, why suggest another American solution? GMX (.com, .net, .de, .ch) has been around for 30 years, is fully German owned and hosted, and got both free and paid tiers just like mail.com.

probably not the right place to ask but I can never view posts like this in full resolution. Like I zoom in and it's just blurry. Right now I'm using photon web front end to view the post on dbzer0.com
