Maybe "likely new" is a bad word to describe it. Comparing to many email providers I know or used 7 years is a pity. It have matured enough to consider it will stay for longer and it won't disappear soon, what has happened to many competitors on e-mail service market. I said "new", because both Migadu (since 2014) and even ProtonMail (since 2013) brought a lot of fresh air in last decade. I my observation for some reasons Migadu gained more attention among people looking to have an email with own domain name in last few years than in previous. When I also shared a link to Migadu to some friends, they also saying "oh, I hear about it for the first time". That's why I am saying "it is likely new on the market", it still have potential to gather new customers by advertising (on the contrary to ProtonMail, which seems media coverage helped a lot).
> I also don't believe that it has near-zero reputation.
Well, I guess I was too harsh but it is small company that already had various problems while operating (thankfully only downtime / lack of support) and it is hard to trust that no leak or breach will happen (and this is what makes me more concerned than some bureau). I also said "it has near-zero reputation for anyone looking for a private" - I don't generalize to whole service but only to private/safe message exchange. This service is perfectly fine for people in IT, startups or just personal emails but if I would be a person, who exchanges confidential documents I will stay away from Migadu. Why? They do not encrypt data on their servers [0][1], which is clearly opposite to what ProtonMail does [2].

> 4. They don't encrypt anything other than SMTP, IMAP, HTTPS. You can encrypt your emails manually but they don't encrypt anything on their servers. They claim this is impractical and doesn't truly help with privacy or security.
> 5. They don't force you to give them your real name or personal info, but there are no anonymous or cash payments. They only process payments via PayPal or Stripe though they claim to not keep any information about you that way.
