VPSs may be a start. But, I'm not comfortable with them long term. We
should push for users to self-host their own infrastructure. It should
be something like the FreedomBox project.

https://freedomboxfoundation.org/

The FreedomBox project is based on Debian. Perhaps, we can build
something similar, but based on Guix.

Currently, I self-host my blog, email, XMPP, GNU Social, and a few other
services on my home ADSL connection with an Intel NUC running Parabola
GNU/Linux. At some point in the future, I will migrate it to Guix.

Roundcube is what I use. I don't know if there are better options.
