What European email services do you use?

Please recommend other interesting email services by your experience.

I have switched from Google's Gmail to ProtonMail and kMail. I really like both, kMail (by Infomaniak) have very similar app interface to Gmail so you will get used to it very fast and also have big storage for free and very good offers for paid plans 👍🏼

Disroot is based in the netherlands i believe.

https://disroot.org/en

From their page:

“Disroot is a platform providing online services based on principles of freedom, privacy, federation and decentralization.

No tracking, no ads, no profiling, no data mining!”

Not sure why Disroot isn't mentioned more often in this kind of discussion.

Apparently not all their services have full encryption (I think their forgejo is unencrypted and plain text?)

Been using Posteo since around 2015. They're great.

[–] calisti@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 days ago

Same. Posteo is fantastic.

Buy a domain and just use a ISP of your choice, don't lock in again with another domain not under your control.

Proton, no thanks to the Government of Putin supporters. Tuta could be the winner for me.

Switzerland supports putin?

Switzerland supports putin?

I dunno man, Wikipedia says otherwise.

The country has a history of armed neutralitygoing back to the Reformation; it has not been in a state of war internationally since 1815[5][6] apart from the Sonderbund War(Switzerland civil war), joining the League of Nations in 1920[5] and did not join the United Nations until 2002.[7] It pursues an active foreign policy and is frequently involved in peace-building processes around the world.[8][9]

On February 28, 2022, Switzerland imposed economic sanctions on Russia and froze a significant amount of assets held by Russian civilians and companies as "punishment" for the invasion of Ukraine. Some described this as "a sharp deviation from the country's traditional neutrality."[10] According to Swiss president Ignazio Cassis in 2022 during a World Economic Forum speech, the laws of neutrality for Switzerland are based on The Hague agreement principles which include "no participation in wars; international cooperation but no membership in any military alliance; no provision of troops or weapons to warring parties and no granting of transition rights".[11

Some of the takes in here are bonkers.

[–] VeryInterestingTable@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago

I made the switch from gmail to Tuta. It's very good. Has desktop app as well as mobile. Highly recommend.

Mailbox.org costs 2gb 1€ in light plan

[–] MicrowavedTea@infosec.pub 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What does "only web app" mean for posteo? Can you not use it with a standard mail app?

[–] calisti@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It just doesn’t have its own app. There is no custom, useless Posteo app.

Which nobody needs, since there’s IMAP and SMTP, so you can use any normal Mail app.

Few points, with them you are required to provide your own domain name. They supports basic CalDav but it's not their main focus.

Their FAQ is really well written, you should take a look.
