Sorry if I’m the millionth to ask this, but what are some good trustworthy email providers? Even if paid. But if I’m paying it’d best if it’s privacy focused. Thanks!

I’m pretty happy with Proton.

Mailbox.org and Posteo are good as well, in addition to Proton and Tuta.

Proton! They’re based in Switzerland (I believe), which is known for its privacy laws. Proton Docs is absolute shit, but it’s their newest product, so I imagine it’ll get better eventually. Their email, storage, and VPN services are fantastic and have both free and paid options.

Edit: I’m not American, just incredibly dumb…

I don’t believe Switzerland is a Nordic country, but +1 for Proton here. A lot of their newer products like Drive need a good amount of work, but Mail and VPN are working great for me.

It is as far as Americans are concerned. It’s over where they sound like the swedish chef

Switzerland is not a Nordic country

And very small precision, their newest product is Wallet (for cryptos 😭)

The rest is true. Go Proton

Yeah, somehow not even considering others at this point. I did before. Currently using Tuta.

They both seem to be at the top of the privacy game, Proton for storage as well.

I like Posteo. Affordable (1€/month) and with focus on privacy and FOSS.

In addition to the above, they also use green energy, if you care about that sort of thing.
