A while back I started on this journey, and as most people did, I've had my ups and downs and went through the learning curve, I've now reached the point of so much knowledge that I truly know, I dont know shit. People of Lemmy I come to you today because idk what to do, I recently made a free account with proton, their subscription is fairly cheap so idm paying the monthly tier of 15GB so I can have control over ending it whenever I please instead of being locked in for a year. Now, I heard about Tuta but never dived much into it, i know Proton has had its controversies (Don't be shy of reminding me of what they were), but what are my options here truly for a proper FOSS email provider? I can negate the free part for a reasonable price, but truly private AND secure is a must.

Self Hosting isn't an option yet for personal reasons unless it's completely free.

Privacy doesn't really exist in what way? In a sense that the layperson should be concerned or just a person of interest in a diplomatic position?
