Wouldn’t really consider Fastmail privacy centric, but Proton sure. And a definite step up from Gmail.

You know, I’m surprised they haven’t launched a paid for, privacy centric email service like Proton or FastMail. They can give basic service for free and then charge a nominal fee for more storage like the others do. It seems like a simple way to drum up some revenue and rely a little less on the payment from Google.

From everything I’ve heard about running a reliable and trustworthy email service, it sounds like a fucking nightmare. I’m glad to pay something like proton to handle it for me.

Yep and making basic accounts free means that you either have to cripple them, ad-finance the whole thing, and/or sell private data.
A posteo account costs an euro a month and even if you don’t care about your privacy it’s one of the places you can be sure of to not shut down or alter the deal: A euro is sustainable for them and it means that you’re a customer, not the product.
