https://search.worldcat.org/ is a good inter-library search site. My librarians use it (among other things, I'm sure) to find books/DVDs to acquire for me on ILL, but since the site is public sometimes I just do the search for them and send them a link to what I want when I submit a hold request.

Your boundaries on cost make it tough, but aside from Tuta you might have a look at mail.ee which has very basic features (no E2EE for example) and a retro web UI, but very high storage limits. They offer free accounts too, and support SMTP/IMAP/POP3. It's Latvian-based so comes with the "100% GDPR compliance" feature if that's of interest.

Zoho.com is another that comes to mind. It's very feature-heavy/slick (you can tell they're attempting to market mainly to small businesses looking for a cheaper Google Workspace), has been around a long time and I've read positive comments from others about the service. It's an Indian company though so you don't get GDPR protections (or similar) as far as I know. The low-end plans are in your price range and I think they still offer a free plan - that's what I have anyway.

I've been a Fastmail customer for decades now and it's exactly what I want a mail service to be, but it's out of your price range and has no free tier.

Don't forget "Giving Tuesday" - designed to manipulate you if have any money left after all the rest and feel guilty about that fact.

I was gonna ask - PeopleOfWalmart? I can see it now - a 400lb man in fur suit bikini, engulfing the electric scooter, half-eaten peach in one hand, half-empty Fireball nip in the other, freshly knocked-over produce display spread in front of him.

The Fediverse needs an r/fatlogic analog, made entirely of stretchy materials of course, where this kind of Fat Acceptance garbage can be posted. It's a special flavor of mildlyinfuriating, Now with 200% of the calories, but don't worry, it's healthy ... of course it is!

skiff.com might be worth a look. Its services are E2EE. Its a lot like Proton in spirit but with better pricing and less nickle-and-diming. 10G of storage on the free plan. It's not a Swiss company though, if that should happen to be important to you.

The Thunderbird desktop mail client is far better (feature-rich, stable, interoperable) than any webmail or phone app mail client I've ever seen.

A handful off the top of my head (not sure if these sub names are case-sensitive in any way or not):
QAnonCasualties
PeopleofWalmart
Engrish
Spokane (the city in WA)
Seattle
Boston
AntifascistsofReddit
Scala
Fsharp
fatlogic

I didn't think to save my subscription list (duh) and I'll be damned if I'm going to log in again to do so. I'm done with Reddit at least until they fire that absolute ass of a CEO and back off on all of his dumbshit money-grubbing schemes. That means 'probably never' and I'm 100% fine with that, fuck them and a hearty hello to the fediverse.
