I want to change my main email. I'm using gmail right now. Which free email host do you trust and recommend? Hopefully one that I can open from the phone and the desktop, instead of from the web.

Same here. I used to pay for the Plus version until I found out Tutanota has a client on F-Droid and the free tier works nicely. Another thing is that I can bulk export, which is something I can't do on Protonmail unless I pay for a plan.

The only thing I don't like about Tutanota is that everything is enclosed on their apps, so you cannot use any external clients, and I rely a lot on Thunderbird. And while I can connect Protonmail through the bridge, I still need to pay for it.

In the end, I'm slowly migrating to Mailbox. It's not free, but I like it, offers a bunch of features I use and I can connect it with external clients. Tutanota is the secondary service I use.
