I have been thinking of completely going off Google. I have a Nextcloud server for documents and contacts and calendar. Thinking of moving mail away too. Currently I am conflicted between hosting my own email server. On searching only advice I am getting is not to do it.

How many of the homelabers do host their own email server? What software do you use? Any tips.

Exim and Dovecot. With a clean IP on a VPS and SPF, DKIM and DMARC I haven't really encountered any problems yet. Though I'm only doing it for about 2 years.
