📧 What if email services had limits BY DESIGN?
Not to upsell you.
Not to force you to pay.
But to make you more intentional.
message.casa was created for this purpose!
✉️ Email:
• 128 MB storage (not 15 GB bloat)
• 64 emails/hour (no spam machines)
• 8 MB attachments (no bloat)
• Unlimited aliases (privacy++)
💬 XMPP messaging:
• 8-day history (live in the present)
• 256 contacts max (meaningful connections)
• 16-person group chats (human-scale)
🔒 Privacy-first:
• No personal data for signup
• Encrypted storage (LUKS)
• No tracking, no ads
• TLS required
The philosophy: Constraints foster creativity.
Limited storage = delete what doesn't matter.
Small groups = actual conversations.
Short history = be present.
This is email/chat for the SmolWeb era.

Do limits make you more intentional?

@adele Have you heard of Delta Chat and chatmail relays by any chance? They impose some strict limits, including only allowing pgp-encrypted messages by default! Registration can also be automated so people regularly register and throw away a new account for each contact for extra privacy, check it out: chatmail.at/relays
