            I haven't followed Thunderbird Pro development super closely, but it *looks* like they've locked in a price. Is this a new detail? At any rate, I'd definitely pay $9/month for a hosted Thunderbird email plan with 30GB of storage, 15 email addresses, and 3 custom domains. (The 300GB of Send Storage also feels fair).

                        There used to be the Cathedral and the Bazaar, but now we have Megachurches also

                        If we look at many of the things that started out in the Bazaar but got big and needed infrastructure, they didn't build cathedrals, they built megachurches

                            The EU, as well as every country in the world, should be taking seriously the importance of sovereign systems for communicating and disseminating information.

                            The ActivityPub protocol is proven and makes many platforms compatible and accessible to each other, allowing for effective information sharing and communication.

                            The only reason many people do not leave X is that many important services and public figures remain on that platform. Therefore, if countries truly care about digital sovereignty and resilience, they should adopt and promote the use of open source platforms and networks based on the ActivityPub protocol, whether it is Mastodon, Pleroma, Vebinet, or another platform.
