Nice try Google

See all comments

I actually deleted my google account yesterday. Felt so good. I'm finally free.

What do you use for email?

Proton Mail.

I'm gearing up to do the same soon. There is an encrypted email service I'm switching to (proton mail). I used it before, but hadn't fully bought into the off-grid stuff. I plan to delete my google account over the next year, and switch everything there. It's hard to untangle everything, but I've had my google account compromised a few times before, so it's time for it to go.

I know others have recommended Proton, but if you need something with standardized calendar/contacts support, I recommend Fastmail. Not quite as secure, but still infinitely better than letting Big G scrape your inbox.

Not the OP, but I have been using ProtonMail as my personal mail for a long time and it works really well for me.
