I want to de-Google, for a variety of reasons that are probably obvious. Part of that entails getting a new e-mail address. Won't be my main one for a while because Google was actually very smart making it possible to log everywhere with one click, so I have a lot of accounts set up in a lot of places without a normal login/password combo. Untangling that may take a while. But I have to start somewhere! So I went to one of the bigger and more prominent options that I was aware of, Proton. Then literally within the next day I read that it's basically in full AI slop mode, and I noped out immediately. Like, I deleted my account within 48 hours of creating it xD and such a shame, I managed to snag a pretty decent username. So now I'm looking for something else. My requirements are small. I want an e-mail address, I don't want the company to go full AI psychosis, I want it to be reasonably secure, the provider to be reasonably established so I don't have to shop around a few years from now, and... yeah, everything else is just gravy. Ideally I'd like not to pay, but if it's very cheap and offers a yearly subscription that's even cheaper, that's OK with me as well. Hit me with your best suggestions! And Boost please if you can.
