EmailThing - A modern email client designed for simplicity and the web!

[vital heron]

no

seens kinda devaluing

tho some time ago i was thinking of posting asking how bad it could possibly be

[vital heron]

Also hetzner vps can now send emails 🔥

[half surge]

Was it blocked before?

[vital heron]

u have to pay your first invoice before being able to request... as such 30 day+

[half surge]

is that for port 25

or 527 or whatever

[vital heron]

25

[vital heron]

I have changed my mind on email html:

1. html will now be default
2. i will edit the html to try and make them look better

-# for point 1: i used to prefer md, but now html is improved and the markdownified is so unsupported by senders

-# for point 2: before i tried to just keep them as own sandbox, but I think its better to actually make them look better within reason (ie if they didnt have any updated styles, make it support dark mode by normal)

[terse bear]

good work

[vital heron]

nitro free trial ftw

[jovial gale]

@vital heron can i get invite code?

[vital heron]

sure https://emailthing.app/register?invite=su33wcuoxg2bc1tovcsb71xl

[vital heron]

yoo ethical seo again 🔥

[hybrid grove]

“Higher sales”, if I were you, I’d give a really sarcastic reply

[vital heron]

i think this is second time (or maybe more) that i have gotten this (and i think same person and template)

lol

[vital heron]

0 is still 0 😭

-# also the template does the css so wrongly that the chosen font isnt parsed correctly by any browser

i do half wana email him back saying how do u even have domain experience with da boring gmail

[hybrid grove]

I dont think you should

[vital heron]

dont worry, i haven't and wont email these spam emailers

[hybrid grove]

Not Spam, cold emailers

[vital heron]

same thing

[smoky oyster]

spam = unwanted stuff

[vital heron]

who needs sqlite when we have postgres and a very good looking priced https://lite.xata.io/

[half surge]

Free tier 15gb that cant hold up for long

[vital heron]

I mean right now it's not even over 50mb (turso was 90 I think, but this is nicer)... most of the storage is counted in r2

[thorn pike]

How the fuck do you use 50mb

[vital heron]

what do u mean? is that too high or low?

[thorn pike]

I find that low as shit

is that for all mails?

Across like all users?

[vital heron]

yeah but as i said the actual data is in r2

the title's and text body is actaully pretty tiny, but attachments and other headers don't need to be stored in actual db

ah html is also in db, but that isnt that big

[thorn pike]

Ahhh okay,
I thought you had waaay more shit in the DB..

How many emails do you have stored rn?

[vital heron]

5.3k

2.6 being my own

logically with my new pwa system, i don't even need as much in db... like filtering being done on client all i need is just the data and when changed (ie if starred) as wont do filtering server side soon

[vital heron]

but yeah thats why i didnt go with neon as 500mb sounds scarly low

[hybrid grove]

And it has maintained 90% uptime only

[vital heron]

haha that also

[fiery timber]

Nice you got competitors xd https://discord.com/channels/752553802359505017/1379401303222128640

[vital heron]

"unregulated" oh no

i mean i dont have a limit, but i dont want to say that because its asking for spam & then google and co straight up will block u

[half surge]

im so confused what this is

isnt that highly illegal in european countries

[vital heron]

oh also emailthing is trying to be more about the UI and cool web than the actual backend

[vital heron]

solidjs... very nextjs

[hybrid grove]

not a competitor its for bulk emailin

[vital heron]

anyway i'll probably have to close this thread soon

[half surge]

Why

[vital heron]

https://pwa.emailthing.app/

it doesn't use nextjs

and its my rewrite thats way better, but when i make it the default, it isn't fair to have this open

[terse bear]

just abandon the thread

[vital heron]

exactly

[terse bear]

okie'

[vital heron]

(i wasn't going to say anything here as was dead for a few weeks or so lol)

81 people joined this thread... woah

[half surge]

whats this written in?

i thought it was a pwa written in nextjs

[vital heron]

pwa in plain react

i didn't want to deal with reverse engineering the nextjs router for decent offline support

and also bun build (the dev server i use as why not), is way faster than nextjs, as doing way less

[half surge]

i dont know much about pwa i cant lie, but devolving from nextjs to react is a bold move

[vital heron]

its still react 😭

not like i went to preact

[half surge]

yeah but surely you have to do do the fetching manually

hence the devolving

[vital heron]

fetching??

ah not being able to server render and server action... i mean to support offline i decided local first, which meant no ssr (except static shells)

[hybrid grove]

AI features when?

[hexed frigate]

@vital heron can i get a invite code?

[vital heron]

Yeah https://emailthing.app/register?invite=rydbqh4pgopn3joy1neie5ff

[hexed frigate]

[hybrid grove]

[subtle pine]

yes

pls do

[hybrid grove]

?????????????????

await @vital heron.migrate(from.cloudflare.Turnstile, to.vercel.botId)

[vital heron]

Maybe when I make it its own app I can try

[hexed frigate]

@vital heron forget password not working

[vital heron]

Intresting, I'm sure I've tested it recently

Can you try on my rewrite which I've tested more recently https://pwa.emailthing.app/login

Or ah is the backup email icloud whose banned me

[hexed frigate]

working here

[vital heron]

cool

[hexed frigate]

what was the issue?

[vital heron]

i dont know

[hexed frigate]

🥲 okay

[vital heron]

alot of that is rewritten

so there is any number of things

[hexed frigate]

ohh

[wraith seal]

Can I get a code as well?

[hybrid grove]

https://github.com/riskyMH/emailthing

[vital heron]

[hybrid grove]

[wraith seal]

[heady merlin]

Can I get an invite code too? 😭

[vital heron]

https://emailthing.app/register?invite=oushysly4fl6a159pifr8elz

[vital heron]

https://emailthing.app/register?invite=sle0g0b0c7e3bz31hzxz5hh9

I should just not need them lol

[heady merlin]

Thanks for the invite, I already got it from the discord server on an alt

But yeah still thank you though!

[vital heron]

Ah nice

[hybrid grove]

botId when?

Turnstile has serious trust issues with me

[vital heron]

i cant remember if i said this

but when i export it to a standalone nextjs app (and put that on vercel), ill try to have both

or maybe cloudflare if token provided and otherwise vercel

havent looked too deeply on how it works

[floral willow]

@vital heron what´s better, web or pwa? and why?

[vital heron]

They are the same thing ngl

[hybrid grove]

it still has serious trust issues with my system

@vital heron please don't use Turnstile invisible use managed, its better

idk if you've configured it, but now its showing a managed challenge to me

[vital heron]

Lol i only am online now, was on 14hr flight

I see notification from u tho

[hybrid grove]

@vital heron https://www.reddit.com/r/CloudFlare/comments/1sfhmbj/cloudflare_email_sending_public_beta/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

cf introduced it again

but its too expensive

[vital heron]

ya not free 😔

but i can see why it isnt

oh also im suprised i never said this, but i closed the thread as its no longer nextjs (nothing against it tho - just not the best decision for this type of client sideability)

[hybrid grove]

its built with nextjs

[vital heron]

emailthing isn't anymore

only emailthing.me

[hybrid grove]

wai what
