Literally anything? Except maybe Outlook?
- mailbox.org
- disroot
- postsnap.de
- Tuta
USPS.
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

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?

Telling their employees to use more AI.
Telling their employees not using AI is loser thinking.
They’ve become very political, siding with the far right, actively ignoring community concerns (see the recent petition deletions) and still, while they E2EE your email contents, they do not encrypt headers and a lot of other metadata. It’s been long a concern among the funny hat communities that they are a possible honeypot as well.
while they E2EE your email contents, they do not encrypt headers and a lot of other metadata.
No email provider encrypts headers nor metadata but Tuta. And even Tuta does not encrypt mail addresses nor date of message sent or received - as these are necessary to deliver a mail at all.
To avoid metadata use e.g. Signal instead of e-mail.
I’ve been using Posteo for a while now, no complaints.
Infomaniak.
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.
Fastmail.com is what I moved to.
I use mailbox.org for email, calendar, tasks.
Almost anything that’s not owned by big corporations. Tutanota for example.
I’d have to go against Tuta, as they’ve been called out numerous times for posting outright lies about their competition on social media. They fabricated a chainmail-style “announcement” from Google announcing a Gmail shutdown date, saying that you should move to Tuta mail. I called them out on this, and they deleted the post shortly after, saying that they “didn’t fact-check the lead that was sent to them”, even though their post was the earliest existing copy of that fake announcement I could find, suggesting that they created the fake document, themselves.
If they’re willing to lie about something so banal, they’re willing to lie about something important. I don’t trust them, and I certainly won’t give them my money.
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!
Proton mail. It’s the only one I’ve managed to switch to successfully
What’s the point of proton mail? You don’t own the keys, you are stuck with their app because they don’t support open protocols, they basically lock you in because of no open protocols, and it’s run by a fascist asshole. Basically any mail provider with encryption on arrival with your own public key is a better alternative.
You can have open protocols or you can have encryption. You can’t have both. Or alternatively you can use the mail bridge they provide.
Hahahaha good one
Gotta support that right wing ideology, right?
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.
