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. π€·ββοΈ
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.
Not everyone wants their backdoors to be legally authorized.
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.
Proton. Because i know how to read, and people had twisted the CEOs words completely beyond what was written. Reading βandβ comprehension folks. Try to build both skills.
He supports nazis. I don't care why.
I created an account with Tuta. But I haven't found time for the actual migration
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.
Imfomaniak for me, not sure if it was the best choice, but at least I made a move.
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
Mailbox. For the imap support.
I switched to Proton too
Tuta has been great.
Proton choked down my chargeback after they said some unwarranted nice things about US republicans.
I'm very happy with Proton.
proton team too
Same here.
I am, as well.
Mailo.
I switched to Proton a few days ago, can't complain for the moment!
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.
I'm also using Tuta. Very user friendly. I also have a StartMail account. Kindly depending which one I want to keep using. Maybe Tuta for personal things and my StartMail mail address for subscriptions and business related.

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 switched to Proton as well, on a Duo subscription together with my boyfriend.
I also took the opportunity to set up my own email domain, so I can be more mobile with my choice in mail provider.

Looking for a good option but I can't convince myself any are good enough to switch. I've created trial/free accounts for all the services I can find but the webmail just isn't as good.
Moved away from Proton since their CEO couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Migrated to migadu.com, works nicely.

I use posteo.de, and are very happy with it.
posteo going well for me too!
I've been using mailbox.org since a while. Reliable and 12β¬ per year, can't really complain. Easy domain name too
Also a fan of mailbox having switched
Been in the proton ecosystem for 5 years, never leaving
Off Gandi since they got bought and jacked up all prices a couple years ago. Galae.net (France) is working well.
Cool to hear someone is using galae. I have considered them in the past. How is email deliverability?
I moved to proton, then found out about their CEO (fuck Nazi apologists) and moved again to tuta. I've been very happy with their service. It's just email/calendar, so more like 'no issues to report'.
Tuta!
Tuta has been cool. Not sure if I want to commit yet though. Hate that can't use thunderbird with a free-account but I am considering just getting a paid account.
Third party clients are not supported at all.
Oh shit, I thought it was mentioned that it's possible with a paid account... God damnit. Didn't fully read their pricing page since I wasn't sure if I'll commit.
Honestly that's kind of a deal breaker for me when thinking about paying for an email service. I need other, nonpersonal email accounts that are from various providers and I love that I can have them all in thunderbird.
Thankfully I didn't yet do much with the email and was using it for new registrations.
Mailo (France) for me!
Same here. Convinced my dad to do the same. Been using is for a while now though.
Switched my custom domain to mailbox.org from icloud
Did not need to switch as I've been using my own domain names (French registrar with French and/or German hostings) since I created my first website... back when quite a few of you reading this today were not even born yet. No, that does not mean I'm that old. Absolutely not :p
I also have a proton and a tuta account (and @ mailbox.org one), just in case someone prefers a more privacy-friendly email than my non-encrypted domain emails, and since neither tuta or Proton are compatible when exchanging encrypted emails, I have both. That being said, I seldom use them: most people simply don't care about privacy.
I use(d to use) gmail for all crappy online stuff I don't care much about losing access to. I will probably end up getting rid of it entirely but, to me at least, even though I know it's possible to do it without a YT account, that would also mean quit watching YT, which is something I still appreciate doing.
I've set up my Proton mail but haven't moved stuff over yet. Any good alternatives to Google Authenticator?
I use Aegis, an open source alternative that works just like Google and Microsoft Authenticator.
