I’ve been looking into the Fediverse and it seems like something I want to get more accustomed to. But iw as wondering if there was an email one based on it? I’ve got like Gmail and outlooks. But I also have a rarely used protonmail. So, I was wondering, is Proton good enough. Or is there a Fediverse alternative?

    Email is based on Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP), defined by the IETF under an RFC or many.

    The Fediverse is based on ActivityPub, out of the World Wine Web Consortium (W3C), the same folks who broygh us HTML and HTML/2

    They are wholly different.
