Recommended me a good private email provider
-
It was the company’s official stance per their official social media account. Not just the CEO/one board member.
-
If you're breaking the law to such an extent that the Swiss government compels Proton to log your IP address, you can use Tor as Proton recommends for that exact use case.
-
Tuta. Regardless of email provider, chose one that lets you use your own domain - that way it's easier to change providers.
-
Proton's CEO seems to be a right-wing jackass.
-
As legally required. Any company that wants to operate aboveboard needs to comply with local law - that includes Proton.
-
Proton has not gone rogue.

I'm also looking to migrate and was recommended this service when I asked a similar question to OP. https://www.migadu.com/index.html
Unlimited inboxes. You're just limited to inbox space, but you can have multiple domains.
I'll be moving over to them when my current subscription runs out with my current provider
-
I don't care about that. I assume all sites keeps logs.
-
It does make me feel a little better, but the fact that they doubled down and hasn't gone out to clarify make me really disappointed. Because they are a non profit foundation makes it a bit more secure also.

Another mailbox.org user here. I did the same switch around the same time and I can recommend as well. Setting up custom domains is also not hard and well documented in their knowledge-base. I am also using it for calendars and contacts with no issues at all. A plus of their premium (3€/month) plan is that you have access to a series of other things (appointments, videoconferencing etc.) which are a nice thing to have if you need them (as an occasional teacher in academia I enjoyed having the options, especially since I could avoid Google/Microsoft stuff).
The only annoying thing is how they handle 2fa login on their website. I rarely need to login, but when I do I always suffer.
-
I strongly recommend this as well. Swapped to Tuta and my own domain after leaving Proton. Having a domain for future moves is huge, I wish I had considered it sooner.
-
Consider one that supports MTA-STS. DANE is a plus but not widely deployed.
If EU, you have a lot of good choices. US providers are limited.
-
https://mxroute.com/ if you need many different domains and email addresses but don't need a huge amount of space, very cheap and just works.
But if you have issues the guys who run it are quite rough and brutal, so support wil be tough on you and expect you know a lot about protocols, etc.
-
oh yeah, I have my own domain since Uhm 2004 and have switched providers about, hm, six times without problems. I never delete emails either (spam I do) and just use Thunderbird's drag and drop to move MA mails from one server to another.
-
Tutanota, startmail, protonmail, etc.
-
proton works, idc what one of the 5 owners say, it is impossible to avoid that type of people

Another mailbox.org user here. I did the same switch as @[email protected] around the same time and I can highly recommend as well. Setting up custom domains is also not hard and well documented in their knowledge-base. I am also using it for calendars and contacts with no issues at all. A plus of their premium (3€/month) plan, apart from custom domains, is that you have access to a series of other things (appointments, videoconferencing etc.) which are a nice thing to have if you need them (as an occasional teacher in academia I enjoyed having the options, especially since I could avoid Google/Microsoft stuff).
The only annoying thing is how they handle 2fa login on their website. I rarely need to login, but when I do I always suffer.
-
I second mxroute. They are solid
-
I like to dish out advice without actually following it.

can you expand on the guys being rough & brutal? can’t find anything about that in a search.
