Posteo here πŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈ

Tutmail for me. 15 email addresses included..

Mailbox.org

Proton, but I don’t think they can justify their monthly price for Β«premiumΒ» features.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 hour ago

Same here, some features kinda pointless. Like why would I ever need 10 email addresses on one account?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

I stick to my state owned ISP

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

There's a world outside the US/European false dichotomy.

I've been with Fastmail since 2019 and you couldn't pay me to go elsewhere. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Not everyone wants their backdoors to be legally authorized. πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

Australian here happy with Runbox, from an european country that respects privacy, unlike the 5 eyes. Unfortunately Australia is not a good country to get a cloud service.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 21 hours ago

Mailbox.org for me

I've migrated some stuff but lots still to update.

I'm on the lowest tier and only have the 3 aliases, I think it may be worth using multiple aliases from what I keep reading online, so may need to upgrade tier before I migrate more accounts.

I've had a proton account since 2016 but be er really used it much. I am now using it as my main account and have mothballed Gmail but will eventually delete Google altogether.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago

I have gone one step further and started a an email provider. Hosted in Frankfurt, backup in Amsterdam.

Custom domain Webmail, IMAP, pop, all with TLS obviously Calendar, tasks, contacts sync all in one, all Foss solutions. Anti spam, anti virus

Haven't figured out how to sell that yet, or at what price, but I'm working on that. XD

[–] [email protected] 6 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

Proton. Because i know how to read, and people had twisted the CEOs words completely beyond what was written. Reading β€˜and’ comprehension folks. Try to build both skills.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 hours ago

Anyone who has a different opinion than mine is necessarily an idiot

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

Happy proton user here too. For 5 years already 😊

[–] [email protected] -4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

He supports nazis. I don't care why.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

That's not the right mindset, but he really did say positive things that were simply not true about Trump's party in the wake of current-ish events.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

Why is nazis=bad the wrong mindset? Its been good enough for most people for 100 years.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 hours ago

I created an account with Tuta. But I haven't found time for the actual migration

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago

Mailbox. For the imap support.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 20 hours ago

Imfomaniak for me, not sure if it was the best choice, but at least I made a move.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Tuta has been great.

Proton choked down my chargeback after they said some unwarranted nice things about US republicans.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 22 hours ago

I switched to Proton too

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

I use posteo.de, and are very happy with it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago

I've been using it for a couple of years now, quite happy with it too.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago

I switched to Posteo too and it's perfect for my needs.

Switched to Tuta and bought a domain. It's been great so far. I can create an email alias with this domain for each service I use. Also have a proton free account but not sure yet what I will use it for (it was for testing before). I also created a disroot account since I really like what they are doing.

Moved away from Proton since their CEO couldn't keep his mouth shut.

Migrated to migadu.com, works nicely.

Ive switched to Proton. Ofc only found out about their CEO after switching, but the have my trust for one. Also really enjoying their other services (password manager, VPN, Drive). Switched to a Duo subscription together with my brother. Quite content so far

I've been using mailbox.org since a while. Reliable and 12€ per year, can't really complain. Easy domain name too

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 hours ago

The reason I didn't go with mailbox is that they recycle your email address after 90 days. So if you decide to leave or didn't pay for 30 days, 3 months lager someone can make a new emailaddress under your old name.
