Is it good? Are there any better alternatives?

I don’t like it because you can’t use the mail address in any mail app. Only in their app or in the browser.

So when they dropped app support for my phone I had to use the web version. But then they also dropped the support for that.

Just like Microsoft they are declaring a perfectly fine phone (MS with PCs) obsolete and make it unusable (MS W11). All in the name of "Security". (Even though you can access the web version of tuta on a PC running Windows XP, a >20 year old OS. I have tried that in a VM after I couldn’t access it on my phone. How hypocritical.)

I am not going to start my PC just to check my emails. I have deleted my account.

It's slow as hell to load and as the other commenter said search is horribly slow. I'm not even exaggerating when I say I spent an hour waiting to load an email from a year or two ago.

Love tuta. Esp. the encrypted calendar. some parts Could use some love, but i pay to support that. I used posteo some time ago but found it very annoying in comparision.

I use them, and recommend them. Full E2EE is my number one requirement - after learning what can be done with just metadata.

Lack of 3rd party clients doesn't bother me.

That they allow integration with your phone's contacts app is a big win - Proton don't allow that.

At some point I used to pay for it (I have a costum domain), but then I ran out of money and couldn't pay. I had the old price too, which was 12 Euros a year.

Now I think the price is the same as proton so if I were to pay for email again, I would probably get proton instead, because proton supports GPG and I think tuta doesn't.

In the end it doesn't matter because 100% of my contacts either use gmail, outlook or some business server and I don't know anyone who uses GPG.
