@mavica yea i'm running all that shit in docker right now, it still manages to be a clusterfuck with very fragile configuration and pretty dangerous for non-mail-experts to make changes at risk of accidentally becoming an open relay or some shite.
its not about packaging up the complexity IMO, but reducing and removing it entirely.
i'll probably still run it in docker, but i won't need 9 containers and a health monitoring container that continuously sweeps and restarts unhappy microservices
people talking about making self-hosting mail more accessible to set up and run day-to-day.
<dream>
turn this hairball: ๐ฉ
- clamd
- dovecot
- fail2ban
- postfix
- rspamd
- apache / nginx
- mysql
- sogo
- solr
into this:
./smallmail-server
implement SMTP & IMAP, secure and encrypted by default, forget "enterprise" & scale-out features, bake in backups.

@Shadejackrabbit I keep telling myself that I should dust off my digital camera. I used to find so much joy taking photos, but it just sorta fizzed out like 5 years ago. I can never get a shot that I'm looking for with my phone either.
@Alesha damn, Gender X sounds badass as hell.
@Egoporsitperum @maple @djsundog wahoo! ILLEGAL BONES TOO! ๐
@bleeptrack thanks sorry if I made what you work on sound diminished by calling them doodles, I lack language and experience with those kinds of projects.
@bleeptrack these were so great! loved to see how much passion people were putting into those projects.
aside: i adore these day-to-day doodles that you do. do you have a tablet you use to make them?
@catalina fair point. i need to nap too. ๐ด
@catalina you yawned again, didn't you?
very vertical poem, cw to save your timeline
this is the
story
of
a girl
who
gets a favor
from
someone
who
actually
possesses some power.
So I
go
back to
my
mole
and I paint
something
in the shape
of
a
cannon
that I shoot at the enemy.
I
just
want to
show
the enemy
that they
can
only
run
their little cannon
against
me
with their willing brains
and
their
weak
little
limbs.

A recent article by Zeynep Tufekci in Wired clued me in to this GitHub thread on core-js adding a donation request to its postinstall script: https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/issues/548
It's kind of incredible to me the amount of self-righteousness and entitlement in that thread. The real tragedy is that unpaid maintainers are doing all this work for free, and big corporations are happily exploiting it without a care in the world.
