Hi, new here but I tried the search function and got no hits so I’m asking this question.

I’m seeing a lot of chatter about Proton Mail may be not as trustworthy and secure as we think. Are their any solid alternative email providers anyone can recommend?
 
Mailfence is one that ive used in the past but i just would rather use protonmail cause ive used them now for 5yrs straight!

Tutanota (tutamail) has been around for ages and is still rated well afaik. Even subject lines and attachments are encrypted, and they offer a free plan like Proton.

However if you use proton mail combo’d with PGP/sef-destructing messages then that should be more than enough security to remain safe imo. Unless there’s some very recent news I’m out of the loop on
 
Thanks for the replies! I’m a little new at all of this but I’m not stupid lol, are you suggesting like temp.pm? I haven’t used it yet but I think I’ll start doing that, thanks!!

temp.pm hasn't changed their canary and is a bit concerning in my opinion!

i don't think they're going to. i've been waiting like 6+ months for them to reply to my email about it; not sure if the email is even active anymore. whois lookup says the domain lease was updated back in june though so there's clearly someone(s) maintaining the site.

So, I guess you speak about Free Plans EMail Provider.

1. TBH i think Proton is safe, atleast not lesser safe then others.
2. Still, me personally changed from Proton to Tuta long ago, i think 2 years ago.
For ... a lot of Reasons.

I think Tuta is a very good alternative.
(probably even better than proton in a few points)

tuta.com

Tuta: Turn ON privacy for free with secure emails, calendars & contacts | Tuta

Tuta guarantees your data stays private for free & without ads. Quantum-resistant encryption makes Tuta the best secure technology solution to protect your privacy.
tuta.com tuta.com

Mailfence, another Free Plan ( i guess atleast, i never used it but should be fine)

mailfence.com

Secure and private email | Mailfence encrypted email service

Mailfence is the only secure and private email service that gives you control. A free, interoperable encrypted email service protected by Belgian privacy law.
mailfence.com mailfence.com

I belive, all other acceptable alternatives Paid Plan start with 1$ or higher tach month ...
 
I've used safe-mail dot net for a long time now. The capacity is on the lower side for free members. When you reach your quota for space you get notifications for emails but can't read them (even after clearing space) but you can always upgrade. I haven't had issues or read about other people having security issues and have had it before proton was around. GMX dot com is decent.

I would still use PGP or privnote when using proton or anywhere else.
 
What's wrong with Proton, out of curiosity. That's what everyone uses. Maybe that's a reason itself. I'm genuinely curious what the best provider is as of today.
