@meliimming Yesterday I realized that Qobuz, a high-res music service for "demanding listeners", was throwing an "unknown error" for my Lavabit email address. It joins a very select club composed of PayPal, the French postal service, and… the governmental service we use to retrieve our final exams grades.
ProtonMail didn't help, but they were less cavalier about it.

@le_ArthurDent @cypnk third options include a social enterprise like #LavaBit, or a not-for-profit community host like #Disroot. But I'm all for making it easier for people to self-host email, so more of these kinds of organizations can be established, with less knowledge overhead, and less maintenance work.
