For the longest time, I’ve been wanting to set up an email server with one of its main purposes being phone notifications.

Is there a fedi thing that I can use to do that?

You know how many server apps will ask for an email address?

Heck even immich asked for an email address! WTF! Ask me for my mastodon or my Lemmy address! So far these have been very reliable communication systems.

I guess the question is also a sort of statement. Why not add a fedi option for logins? Please???

Looks like they hacked something already for this using:

It looks intimidating but probably same as spooling up a mastodon instance.

    Email is federated. You can set up your own server using something like Stalwart in a few hours. I deliver thousands of emails a month on my personal server. The problem is deliver ability to Gmail and outlook, but if you don’t care about that then you’re golden.
