    I see Proton and Tuta recommended here, often.

    I also see complaints about both (Proton’s politics and Tuta’s tendency to lock and clean free accounts).

    Both seem better than Google, who seem to be tightening their grip on those unable to walk away.

      Tuta’s tendency to lock and clean free accounts

      Tuta deletes free accounts that have not been logged into for 6 months.

      Proton’s politics

      What?

      Better rec is get your own domain and try out any other service, if you own the domain you can always hop if needed.

      Proton locks automatic email forwarding behind a subscription, so if you ever want to move away from them but not immediately lose any emails that go to that inbox, your only choice is to pay.
