Recommended me a good private email provider

If the hat fits, that's up to you

They dont "cooperate with governments", they follow the laws they legally have to. All the cases I can think of where they gave info to a government with a legal order to do so, they gave information that has to be logged in order for the system to work and the subjects themselves used poor opsec eg: their real names for accounts and recovery emails...
Some privacy extremists have unrealistic expectations when they sign up to these things without fully understanding how it works and then blame the provider for something they were completely transparent about from the beginning.

You're right, they got called out as a "honeypot" for basic KYC...

I’ve been using Tuta for several years now, I didn’t know I could use my own domain!
-
Paid tiers only i think, but yes.
-
I am a paid tier… and I have my own business… this is really something I need to do.

If you were projecting any more you'd be a lighthouse

Do it. It’s very straightforward.
- Buy a domain.
- Edit the DNS records to make your provider work with your domain.
- In Tuta (or even an alias service like Addy), create new emails using your custom domain.
- Done.
Whenever you need to switch providers such as if Tuta decides to support fascism like Proton’s CEO, you can easily switch to a new provider. Then add your domain to the provider, update your DNS records to point to your new provider, click Save. Done. And you won’t have to change your email addresses ever again.

This is amazing, thank you

100%, like you said, email isn't really made for private communications. Even with me calling it out as not private, I do use fastmail as my main provider and like it.
