I’ve been wanting to move on from gmail for a while now, thought about self hosting but I’m afraid I won’t have the time or ability to keep it running well for a long period of time. Which service would you guys recommend? I’m not an avid email user, I basically just sign up to websites and send support emails once in a while.

After reading comments from their CEO on the protonmail subreddit I’m surprised anyone would use it in the first place. Also it’s only E2EE with other skiff emails. They don’t use PGP so their email encryption doesn’t interoperate with other providers.
I don’t use it as my default provider. Obviously, for some messaging, I use Proton. But if you need a FOSS provider, that will be used for registration in some services and password recovery, this is a very good option! They don’t use this information for commercial purposes, that’s already better than Gmail or Outlook.
