Proton Mail is ok. Of the people who uses it, I am part of the minority that does not think it is great.

Part of the problem I have with Proton is that they skip plenty common email standards, so you cannot use a regular email client with it. If you use a tightened security focused browser, the web interface can become a bit sluggy. It certainly gets the job done and they offer a functional free tier, so all in all it is not bad.

Personally I prefer the Startmail model. I know I am a minority here too, but being able to use Startmail with standard email software is just so much better than other pseudo-email services out there.

Nowadays I run my own email server, lol.
