That’s probably just mail that lands in your spam folder without being entirely blocked. According to Microsoft and Google approximately 99% of incoming spam (of the ~160 billion spam emails sent per day) never even reaches their users mailboxes. I assume that’s roughly standard across email providers. I am concerned comparably sophisticated filtering may become necessary on the Fediverse eventually.
I’ve been using Fedi for a long time and from the very beginning I’ve been afraid of spam and bots ruining it, at least temporarily. Spam is still a problem with e-mail, and it’s been around for 40 years and they’ve developed very sophisticated anti-spam mitigations for it.

“Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.”
That’s very quotable.
I recently switched to Linux and the latest KDE surprised me with how powerful it is. Scaling works. Fonts are rendered nicely. It’s just easy to use. Most of the time I don’t even think about the fact that I’m running Linux anymore.
