>Based on postfix + dovecot (both 40 year old programs originally written for Unix mainframes)
and no, this isn't correct. both are from ~2000. 20-30 years after Unix, and 10 years into Linux.
>>
>>103321963
It’s based on a 50 year old architecture where you had sendmail and users accessed their email by logging into a unix mainframe.

Postfix was supposed to be a sendmail killer and be simpler, but ended up getting more complicated.

The default sendmail configuration still acts the same as 50 years ago, assume users are using their unix account to check email. Now you need a backend server like dovecot to handle using POP3 access. And that’s not enough, you need more software for encryption and dmarc and spam filtering…

Setting up postfix and dovecot is so complicated no one knows how to do it. That’s why enterprise used gmail, aws, or outlook email. For personal use people just use glued together docker images.

Promoting mailcow is furthering the problem of no one knows how to setup postfix and dovecot, making everyone more reliant on gmail, aws, and outlook.

I know it's possible and you can use appimages and stuff. I'm saying: on average, the windows environment is more conducive to users keeping their files to install whatever software. With Linux, yes the software exists remotely (I suppose usually), but with package managers and repos, users are less likely to keep their software locally in a "portable" form that they'll continue storing.
>>
>>103321753
It doesn't work that way.
In MS Windows you can install and run application made 5 years before or after installation of your system with 99% chance of success because 4 VC redist and 4 .net libs packs is all you need.
In GNU Linux systems this chance is close to 0% unless you bundle all your apps with required libs and libs required by these libs, kernels, and run without graphics server trying to minimize dependencies as maximum as possible, because of bugs and api changes. If you think about it, it's miracle that desktop linux not just exists, but lives.

I run Gentoo. I could retain the distfiles for every single thing on my system and install the entire thing completely offline if I wanted to yet I still don't (I do have my own local distfiles mirror but only for the distfiles currently in use by the current state of the Gentoo tree. I don't keep old distfiles).

>>103321910
The fact that it changes so much is actually a side-effect of it living. The reason there is no stable API is because Linux is a thriving operating system that is free to make those breaking changes that Microsoft wouldn't dare do. There are improvements to Windows that could be made but cannot be made because it would break backwards compatibility and Microsoft is too afraid to tell the people running some shitty accounting software that isn't getting updates anymore to fuck off.
>>
>>103321976
> side-effect of it living. The reason there is no stable API is
Because of lack of consolidation. OpenGL and Vulkan are stable.

And it's good.

I think it goes without saying that it doesn't fit everyone's needs, so obviously don't use it if your infrastructure is built around openvpn.

However, it is extremely lightweight and only uses a tried and tested handful of preexisting ciphers. Plus, the codebase is a lot smaller than openvpn so the likelihood of a vulnerability is practically zero.


>>103321071
>>103321186
>>103321208
> insecure

Wireguard isn't "creating something new". It's just patching together ciphers that have been around for ages. Out of all the ciphers, the most recent one is chacha20-poly1305 and that's almost a decade old. And even then, both ciphers are older than that (2008 and 2005 respectively)

Google being forced to sell Chrome will actually be worse for Mozilla. They're under antitrust lawsuits for paying Mozilla and Apple to make Google the default search engine on their browsers. This Google deal is $510m out of their $593m revenue. They won't be totally fucked since they have a lot of savings and they'll sign deals with some other search engine but of course without the Google competition they won't get as much.
