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.
Try it: https://message.casa/
Do limits make you more intentional?
