This is super basic but I need to find a better email option (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Not that many people use email much anymore, but as you often need an email address to sign up for other shit... anyway, I need a better option than gmail, I'm sure you can appreciate why. Email is so old school at this point that most of the time I don't even think about it anymore.

Anyway, I need some email options that aren't gmail or otherwise attached to a billionaire. I'm not really interested in non-email methods of communication, I'm specifically asking about email.

Thanks in advance.

Protonmail. I have over 25 different online accounts/identities (each one for a different topic gaming, movies, music, coding etc.), all Protonmail based.

Proton is run by a fascist. Its only a matter of time until they too will Start sucking Trumps balls

LOL. Proton is absolutely not run by a fascist. You should learn what fascism is and what they do. Proton CEO is way WAY more tame than actual fascists. It's actually not even close IMO.

look up what fascist means dumbass, it's more than just someone you disagree with.

do you know of alternative? I wanted to leave them because of this but found they most other options were not as close as good.

Proton has a good service

[-] TypicalHog@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Absolutely. But one thing I didn't like was it locked me from using Proton services (even free plan) once my premium plan ran out until I paid $6 cancelation fee BS.
