It’s me again with another question for recommendation 🙈 This time I am searching for a new Email-Provider:

Currently I am using mailbox.org (privacy-friendly provider based in Germany). Since my subscription is comming to an end there, I tought about switching to proton mail-plus. What I like about them is, that they have an easy way of creating alias-emails and also support the option to use your own domain.

But maybe you gals and guys have another great provider which offers good features for a good price.

Also: I dont need Cloud-Storage or anything like that, so just mail is fine.

Thx in regards :)

    I went through this journey looking for new providers recently after Proton started doing crypto shit. Tuta and Fastmail were the main recommendations, though the former has been accused of being a honeypot and the latter has really awful practices toward workers and unionisation.

    I went with Migadu as a no-nonsense solution, and I’m over the moon with it.

    As a big fan of decentralisation and federation, I was very tempted to try out Disroot, but I wasn’t ready to try it out with my main mailboxes. I’ll likely use it for any upcoming toy projects I embark on though.

      Has any more evidence ever been produced to show Tuta is a honeypot? The guy who made the original claim is in jail for 14 years for passing on secrets while he was director of RCMP intelligence.

      Why did Proton adding a Bitcoin wallet cause you to look elsewhere? If it’s a product you’re not interested in, just don’t use it. Otherwise you’re stuck using providers that offer exactly what you want, no more and no less, which seems like such a narrow needle to thread, you’ll never find something or can’t stick with it for long.
