As I build my new website, I need emails for a custom domain
I started using my domain extension in proton mail private
To only find that if you buy google workspace you can't have 2x email providers on the same domain
Half a day screwing around with MX records, DNS stuff, and still none the wiser as to how I should set it up
Somehow I just don't trust google
And having them at the centre of my tech stack, calender, calls, email, docs etc etc, although by far the easiest, just doesn't feel right
Most painful thing is trying to figure out a calendly like alternative to use with proton cal
Boring stuff
But typical of the random shit one ends up doing with startup projects
I've almost got totally lost in the weeds on something actually not that important
Attention
One must value it better!
Decided to scrap gsuite, use proton for custom email, and a old personal gmail for scheduling
Annoying to not have all on one domain, but best solution I can come up with for now
ONWARDS!
