I did email for about a year. Sucked shit so I cut my losses and closed the thing down.
I think that’s what’s kept me at KeePass rather than moving to something like Bitwarden. Since it’s file-level encryption, anything that can serve files can also serve my KeePass database. When I upgrade servers or change to different services, restoring my database is as simple as throwing the file into that new service and going on with my life.
Add on user purge behavior and the headaches that causes. Can’t count the number of times I’ve been looking into an issue and came across a two year old reddit thread where the solution had been deleted. Much less likely to happen on a dedicated forum.
Honestly I’ve got like 7 different addresses spread across 3 different providers. Email isn’t important enough for me to worry too much about privacy and control. It’s mostly just a place to collect spam for me these days.
