Hello, I am thinking on which email provider to use as an alternative for Gmail.

I don’t expect E2EE because I know nobody who uses either Tutanota or Proton Mail personally. I just want an alternative to Gmail, where I can message people I know who use Gmail securely.

EDIT: I have chosen my email provider as Proton Mail because I can send encrypted emails not only to people using Proton Mail, but to people who don’t too, which I feel is better.

    Since we’re on a privacy forum I want to point out that if you’re not paying for a product you are not the customer you are a product. If you want to make privacy alternatives to Google viable you should consider financially supporting them .

    This brings up a good point I hadn’t thought of mentioning before. You should really use your own custom domain name for email. That makes migrating the different services much easier and you don’t have to change your email address with your friends. Your own domain usually requires a paid service one for the domain registrar itself, and the mail provider. All the services we talked about today charge money for custom domains but it’s worth it
