What is a good alternative to proton mail these days?
What in the spam username is this?
I want to say… Some sort of self hoster with a cheap domain going for the “security through obscurity” approach…

I’ll let you explore, but definitely a self hoster!
.com’s are 10 bucks. How cheap could it be??
Free for a year or so, depending on where you register
The 1.111B class (basically the numbered domains) cost ~1 dollar/yr.
That is a lot cheaper
If you’re self-hosting something for your own use, there’s nothing better than the dollar .xyz domains, as that’s literally what they were priced like that for. Dunno if I would use them for public services, though.
I’ve had a decent experience with Tuta.
Opened a Tuta account six months ago and have never been back on Protonmail as a result. Same quality for free.
After trying and failing to get used to Proton’s UX, Fastmail has been great.
Been using Fastmail for a few years now. I really like it.
Same answer as last time this was asked, I am very happy with Posteo.
No implying that asking multiple times is bad.
We should all be asking about and offering alternatives, a lot. Over and over.
I’ve been a Runbox customer for many years. Never had a problem. Runbox is operated from privacy-respecting Norway.
I guess I’m out of the loop. What’s wrong with Proton?
Its CEO is kissing Trump’s ass.
really? that sucks. really? i am genuinely so disappointed, jeez
That’s one take: that Andrew Yang is a Trump supporter. However, another take is that he made a massive mistake by making it seem as if he supported Trump, even though he was talking about something specific and narrow.

If he doesn’t, then he could come out and state that and address all of the republican problems.
Indeed, he could. It sounds like it’s an expectation from you, and that if he doesn’t then he is entirely a Trump or Republican supporter.
Always has been a sketchy company - any company who claims Swiss privacy laws are good (and in reality operates out of the US) is lying to you.
StartMail is owned by an advertising company, it’s not a better choice whatsoever.
Until they don’t.
Can vouch for mailbox.org.
I’ve been using their 1€ per month tier for a year now, everything has worked well.
Sorry I’m not really adding to the question but we need alternatives for a lot of apps… Fb, Instagram, WhatsApp,etc it’s impossible for me to ditch them all without loosing contact with friends/family… any other threads going on about this? Maybe have a general thread and subsequent migration movements, we really need to act on this social life monopoly we’ve became hostages to…
What’s the problem with WhatsApp? Aren’t the chats encrypted?
Whatsapp is owned by meta
Not a shitty product, but the company is shit unfortunately
I’ll recommend Tuta mail.
Tuta
I’ve been using PurelyMail for over a year now and it’s been solid. Probably aimed more at tech-minded folk though.
OOTL.
Whats the issue with Protonmail ?
The ceo promoted Trump. They offer a crypto wallet. Nothing wrong with their products per say, mostly politics. L
Oh, ok.
mailbox.org seems pretty good. No apps though. And setting up syncing for calendar and contacts takes a bit of work. but once it’s working, it’s good. I’m using thunderbird mobile for mail and DAVx5 to sync contacts and calendar.
any already mentioned here + using your own domain name
