I’d still use proton over gmail in a lesser than two evil situation. In fact I’m still using it. I just migrated over before the recent news about the head of proton. I’m sure I’ll switch eventually…probably why I clicked in this thread. Ehem…carry on.
better is a relative term.
what particular do you want in your email provider?
What about relative to you?
I’d choose Proton Mail as a simple alternative. Fastmail is also a good option if you value compatibility with different email apps.
Literally anything? Except maybe Outlook?
- mailbox.org
- disroot
- postsnap.de
- Tuta
Fastmail.com is what I moved to.
I’m using a combo of mailbox.org and Addy.io for aliasing. Works great.
I pointed all 13 of my various emails to a forward@mydomain email on Addy. Put a rule on mailbox.org to throw those emails in a folder called “change me”, and ive been going through daily and changing or deleting or unsubscribing from everything that hits that box.
It feels nice only having one email again but also having the ability to make and turn off email aliases to stop junk and spam.
Mailbox.org used to be in a distant third third place after recommendations for Proton and Tuta. Glad to see it’s top of the pile a lot of the time now.
I’ve been using it for years. It’s cheap and has a lot more going on than just email. Mailbox took me a long way into my degoogling.
That’s a really clean solution. I’ve been meaning to clean up my emails. This might be what I need
I’ve been using Posteo for a while now, no complaints.

If your goal is not spamming then this is not needed.
The instance is already visible, and we are already viewing the original post as this is not a crosspost, and the federation button already provides a way for people to view the post as your instance serves it.
I'd say it's necessary to add the link, because from Mbin this shows up as a microblog post and not a proper "thread" post, so there's no attached link for me except for the one in OP's text body. Crossposting microblog content doesn't work super well yet, whereas thread content posts pretty effectively.

No E2EE but not Big Tech (yet long-standing, since 90s), more generous free tier than Gmail (20GB for e-mail and 15GB for files), and its office suite may work better than Google Docs.
I use mailbox.org for email, calendar, tasks.
I made the migration over to Fastmail recently and have been very happy with it. Good engineering culture, security conscious, has all the features I’d expect, no nonsense.
Would recommend it!
at work we use electric embers. its a coop. you have to have a domain tho, more of a group solution.
Thundermail is gonna be the best
Based on what?
I just like it 👍
Its quite expensive, a good 3-6 x the price of other email services.
Anything but Proton
You’re really going to recommend Gmail over Proton? Let’s keep it sane here…
“As an alternative to Gmail” is the start of the whole thing, it’s assumed they’re moving away from Gmail
Outlook is better than Proton?
Outlook is not an email provider. That’s twice you’ve said that. Are you sure you want in this conversation?
I’ve been happy with Infomaniak
