Fastmail, 100%. Reasons:

  • “Encrypted email” only works between encrypted providers. ProtonMail and Tutanota are both very inconvenient, and all I want is an email that’s not scanned for marketing.
  • Since 2018, ProtonMail kept getting worse, especially with the recent AI stuff. Dodged bullet, IMO.
  • $6/month = Custom domains, and any amount of emails under those domains. I can send and receive from any domain xxx@yyy [dot] lynndotpy [dot] dev, for example.
  • CalDav and CardDav provider = Contacts, calendar, and reminders sync. Works perfectly on iOS too, if you like that.

It replaced my finnicky NextCloud for half the cost.

You forgot the Fastmail killer feature. Masked email addresses.

yeah… it’s pretty hard to get non-techies to use encrypted mail. even proton’s encryption is pretty useless as it’s decrypted in their web client anyway.

I might have to change my provider. Paying the same with a worse featureset.
