From everything I've heard about running a reliable and trustworthy email service, it sounds like a fucking nightmare. I'm glad to pay something like proton to handle it for me.

Yep and making basic accounts free means that you either have to cripple them, ad-finance the whole thing, and/or sell private data.

A posteo account costs an euro a month and even if you don't care about your privacy it's one of the places you can be sure of to not shut down or alter the deal: A euro is sustainable for them and it means that you're a customer, not the product.
