Its not the 90s. You can no longer get traction for new protocols without backing from big tech and they will push walled gardens. I have very rarely had issue

Its not the 90s. You can no longer get traction for new protocols without backing from big tech and they will push walled gardens. I have very rarely had issues reading email.

In that case, you have resigned to being stuck without a working federated messaging protocol forever.

  pretty much. I would love to be wrong so please convince me. I think the best bet is making email better and easier to self host,

  E-Mail is working. You might not be able to make it work.

    A messaging protocol where messages are highly likely to not arrive at their destination, and where one messaging client can't properly render mail sent from other clients, does not work.

      Again, seems like a you-issue.

        In what way? I didn't make the e-mail clients I'm using, I didn't make the e-mail hosts which drop messages

        Maybe you should. Like you suggested to invent a new protocol.
