Anyone got a any opinions (or a link to a review) of the different options? Proton and tuta come up, are there others worth considering?
I understand that I'll probably need to pay (otherwise I'm the product) and encryption / security is good, but the thing that keeps with Gmail (apart from inertia) is that it feels quick and easy to use. My only real experience of non Gmail sites over the last two decades have been terrible but mandatory work webmail systems that are slow, clunky and look a decade out of date. Or Hotmail, which sucks for a variety of reasons.
Don't use Proton. The owner of the company is a Trump supporter. Also, Proton is based in Switzerland, I think a EU service is better for European citizens.

I don't want to ruin your day, but Proton is not a safe service anymore, after its owner publicly expressed his love for Trump. So, I highly suggest you to try and move to another European service such as Posteo or Tuta.
I did see that, and it doesn't ruin my day because as of right now everything is encrypted without any backdoors to it, but yes I'm absolutely keeping an eye on it. When I saw that headline though I was pissed. Problem is I also don't know of any other good, safe options currently.

I think people are confused, this has nothing to do with gmail as far as I can tell.
Google is going to websites and subscribing itself to their newsletters. This is not related to consumers.
they are definitely scanning your inbox… you can “opt out” but, i don’t trust that either

I've used Tutanota for a long time with no issues.

Mailbox.org is another good option, pretty cheap to use with your own domain which I highly recommend. With your own domain you can move email providers almost instantly later on without needing to update emails on all your accounts.

Google sent out a notification that it will automatically opt you into using content from your email campaigns to help Google know what to show in Google Search, Shopping, and Maps. It will look for content around "new arrivals, sales or ongoing promotions, social media profiles, and others," Google said.

I just remembered I still have an old gmail address, I should probably change those things over to my new addresses.

wow thanks! that's a long script, how do you know the new numeric ID that corresponds to the same content on the home instance?
Not sure how it works, it just changes all lemmy links I see on pages to be lemmy.world ones. You can select the home server on the first run.

Mailspring desktop client has a pretty neat UI imo.
Thanks, I'll check it out!
