I used to run my own mail server.

Now I don't.

Practicality beats purity.

To be quite frank, the moralistic approach of complaining about the
way other people are too happy to give control to big companies is
NEVER going to achieve anything. You're welcome to be a little island,
that one Gaulish village that still holds out against the invaders,
but all you'll actually be doing is sidelining yourself.

I'm not saying that this is a GOOD situation, but facts are facts, and
I use Chrome and GitHub and a wide variety of other tools that aren't
free.
