I literally just switched over from Google a few months ago and finally got all settled in. Just great. Does anyone know of any good alternative? I know Tuta exists, are there other options?

FWIW if you switched once then next switch is RADICALLY easier.

Well, switching from Proton was more painful for me, at least on a free account, as it won't gel with a desktop client like Thunderbird or Outlook, and last I checked, didn't allow email forwarding.

I’ve liked my experience setting up Purelymail with a custom domain!

I'm on the same boat :')

I know there's Fastmail, but I don't know if they have privacy on the level of Proton. I just know that one of the hosts on a tech podcast that I listen to moved there from Google and was impressed at how smooth the process was.

I just got started with mailbox.org. So far so good!
