I don't know if tuta and posteo have some special privacy features, but if you're just looking for a non-gmail provider I've been very happy with fastmail. It's an Australian provider with a good track record afaik.
Would also highly recommend getting your own domain if you can, so your address doesn't belong to whichever provider you choose.
I'm in the US. I wonder if there's any drawback to using an Australian provider. Like, will it get flagged or something?
If it's Australian, don't expect strong privacy. But then again, I wouldn't expect that from a US based email provider either.

I don't think so. I'm in Sweden myself.
