Why shouldn't hosting be their biggest cost?

That's a lie. You are still shown Pocket ads and AMO still uses Google Analytics which cannot be blocked (extensions cannot run on addons.mozilla.org). About the rest: true, it's in the recent past, but Mozilla love to shoot thems

It's not organic; Google has editorialised it in a racist way.

>Suddenly, you are no longer fighting your browser. I mean, if you're okay with Pocket showing you ads in your home page, your browsing data being sent to Cliqz, addons that publicise the "Mr Robot" TV show being installed

It's cool you spend your time and money doing things you like (regardless of whether those RFCs will be implemented by email servers and clients) but don't make your customers pay for it. Set up donations or something.

I understand that, but paying 100x what a VPS would cost, that's a rip-off. (100x because a VPS can handle the email of 100 people or even more.)

Except for the apps, cloud hosting providers already give you all of that for a better price. I also don't want an app... IMAP is a standard, you know.

This 1-XS server costs 2€ every month and it could perfectly handle the email of hundreds of users. They are charging you more only for yourself, and that's not even factoring in the economies of scale. https://www.scaleway.

It's expensive if you think of what it costs to keep a mail server online. They have a price that clearly shows to me that they have no competition.

FastMail is good, but it's very expensive. I'm waiting for more competition in this space. I think, as people turn away from Google (and thus Gmail), more competition will arise and we'll finally see fair prices.

Google Chromium, sans integration with Google, and sans updates. Thanks but no thanks.

Because people watch absolute garbage. There's no algorithmic solution to that.
