I’m in the process of getting rid of as much Google-related stuff as I can. Yesterday I already started with moving everything I had stored in Drive (backups and other stuff) to my Nextcloud and the like. Now I want to change my main email, the one I’m going to use for, my accounts here in the fediverse and so on. So I’m looking for alternatives.
At the moment, apart from Gmail, I also have an Outlook (from when it was hotmail), a Proton account (though in view of their CEO’s recent statements I may not keep it) and a new one on Disroot.
Which of the aforementioned services works best for a normie not well versed in cybersecurity like me?
Do you know of any alternatives I’m not aware of (I’ve heard of Tuta, but nothing else)?
I would probably stick with Proton for the time… Gmail isn’t private, Outlook I see as being about the same as Gmail… just blue… and then Disroot from this Reddit post suggests it is not encrypted at rest.
Isn’t Proton a little… fascist?

That’s enough for me to leave. Add on to the fact that Proton has been severely mismanaged since its inception. He’d rather prioritize crypto wallets and shoving AI into email than getting basic shit working.
I just want to swipe left and right to go back and forth between emails in my inbox ):
Less than Google is, for now. But still bad enough for me to be switching to Tuta
