Slowly working on hosting my own. Stuff like this is not fast for me since I am a hobbyist and not in tech professionally. But, I’m getting there.

I just switched to getting my own domain and hosting it as a bundle with the domain provider. The Web client sucks, but I use thunderbird anyways.

That is a better idea than me foolishly trying to get all of it running out of my basement. So many little things that lead to other little things. Right now, my “ditch gmail” project is a build my own router with openwrt project.

Fuggen rabbit holes man.

You can start one on a cloud hosting service tomorrow, and then if at some point you want to move to "on premises" hosting (as in, a Raspberry Pi in your basement) then you can migrate over easily enough. That's the whole point of self-hosting; all of the data is yours to manipulate and move around as much as you like.

I would not recommend self hosting at all. The bigger providers usually don't even accept mail from unknown servers/domains.
