Email provider that doesn't suck? (hexbear.net)

I'm currently using Proton, was using Gmail forever before that. But now we know the Proton CEO is chuddy, so I'm wanting to move again. Tuta seems similar to Proton, and both Tuta and Mailbox.org are in a 14 eyes country. Was hoping to be outside of US and EU. Any recommendations?

It really doesn't matter what email provider you choose as email itself is not meant for secure communications.

Ideally you choose an email provider that gets out of your way as much as posdible. I've been using posteo for that purpose and proton+email aliases with simplelogin for creating accounts on different sites.

Email aliases are a godsend for navigating the internet nowadays and creating accounts on certain sites.
