Just wanted to share this in case anyones thinking about signing up for a Riseup account
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ive had around 2 or 3 accounts over the years, and every single one got shut down over stuff I had zero control over. on the surface, Riseup looks like a solid, privacy-focused service, but the way its managed is honestly frustrating, i lost access without even doing anything wrong.
theyve got this invite system, and if someone connected to your invite does something shady – like sends out spam or posts dumb stuff – theyll suspend your account too, you wont get any real warning or explanation either, just boom – account gone, and they dont let you reuse your email to set up a new account or migrate your data elsewhere.
at this point, Id just go with something more reliable like cock.li or any webmail
