You can host a webmail like roundcube or similar. I don't know if they can be turned into PWAs with phone notifications though.

The thing that sucks about that is the sheer amount of stuff that a modern web browser is expected to do.
Level 0:
- Parse and correctly display the contents of simple HTML documents in a manner consistent with other browsers
- Figure out what to do if somebody gives you mangled HTML in a way consistent with other browsers, because the page will just about always try to show the user something.
Level 1:
- Implement who knows how many CSS properties in a way consistent with other browsers
Level 3:
- Now write a JavaScript engine to manipulate all of the above, making sure that everything works like it does elsewhere no matter how non-sensical it is, because pages rely on that stuff to function sometimes.
Level 4:
- Don't forget to implement media codecs so you can display video, play audio, and let the user control those via JavaScript APIs, and you have to render/play that in whatever way the webpage specifies.
Basically, writing a browser engine from scratch in a way that is in any way competitive is probably on par for scale on writing your own operating system. You might even accomplish the latter faster, depending on where you'd call your OS "complete"
I always found the tracking chip conspiracy stuff to be particularly funny. Unfortunately, I never personally met any whackos that believed it.
The best method for very accurately tracking them was the thing they likely used to post about the COVID vaccine tracking you.
Lemmy has cut out my doomscrolling more than I estimated. I knew it would decrease, but usually I don't scroll for more than 5 or 10 minutes at a time, and it never interrupts me doing anything else. Makes me look back and realize how unhealthy those algorithms really are.

they could run an extra year on $0 of donations. Whether one considers that enough or not might be down to personal viewpoint.
I often grab a pirated copy to see if I like it first, and if I do, I'll buy it. If I play it once or twice and don't really get much out of it, I'm not out anything but some download time.
Bad thing about the shire is, in the books particularly, I get the feeling that the Hobbits are super judgy and talk shit about each other constantly behind their backs.
Which, given that the shire is so small and insular, checks out. What else are they talking about after they finish up about the weather or wondering when Gandalf will show up with fireworks again.
“By partnering with the Cfx.re team, we will help them find new ways to support this incredible community and improve the services they provide to their developers and players.”
Allow me to translate:
“By partnering with the Cfx.re team, we will help them find new ways to bleed the community's wallets dry and force servers to pay a cut of their monetization revenue and offer nothing substantial in return.”
We're quickly approaching a world in which the smartest machines are more intelligent than the dumbest humans, which causes a problem for capcha creators.
I only eat one real meal a day and supplement with light snacks and plenty of fluids. As long as that one meal is something of substance and not say, a ramen packet or something like that, I feel pretty good. There are people that do one meal a day with no other food intake at all, too, but that's a bit low for me.
You could probably ask this question of most things and get the same answer.
