Reasons we host with 1984: - Iceland is outside 5 Eyes and a strong record of data request denials. - 1984 won against the ADL demanding a site take down (litigation.1984.hosting). - Open, responsive communication with the operators (with us, anyway).

Claimed. This new email service looks great. We desperately need new options for email. Remember e2e encryption almost certainly means just between two Rootshell accounts, but I love that I didn't need a phone number or email to register. news.ycombinator.com/item?id… rootshell.is

It has come to our attention that emails from external providers may have not been delivered to your inbox due to a DANE validation issue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our users. The issue should now be resolved. m( _ _ )m

open-source primitives (P-256 ECIES, AES-256-GCM) wrap a key derived from your password (Argon2id) 24-word BIP39 mnemonic is the only backup no PGP interop: inter-rootshell use gets E2EE, emails with external providers are unencrypted metadata protection is in ongoing development
Is the crypto open-source and audited? How are keys stored / backed up? Does it support PGP interoperability? What metadata is logged? I'll frame it better in another post soon
