For a while now I have been looking for email providers that are transparent and meet EFF standards, and in fact, I went to the EFF website to see if there was an article about email providers, but found nothing, the only decent providers I could find on my own, have been tutanota and cock.li, I am currently using tutanota and was planning to move everything to cock. li, but unfortunately it hasn’t been going through its best moment, I would stay with tutanota if it wasn’t for one thing, and that is that it can’t be used inside thunderbird, there is a plugin that allows you to open a window with tutanota, but that’s not the idea, ideally you would be able to add your email address without any external plugin, and that is why I am asking for recommendations that meet the standards mentioned above, but that is also compatible with thunderbird to be able to save the emails locally, any client can download the emails to be able to have them locally, but that is the one I use personally.

Seconded. Been a user for years without a single problem.
PS: There’s also Proton and Posteo, they’re all fine. The important bit is to pay for it. This is a critical hub for your personal data. It’s completely aberrant that people have allowed themselves to be trained to accept a free service in exchange for spying. A dollar or two a month is not prohibitive for anyone. We should all be paying for this service.
Thirded. Came from Proton even. It’s been solid for sure!
Use it daily with a couple applications. Namely Thunderbird on Android and Mailbird on Windows.
