Given the recent Proton controversy, I imagine quite a few people are trying to jump ship on their services. I myself was already in the process of something similar for different reasons, and looking over the services I believe addy.io to be a better fit for me than simplelogin (or Eforw, which I haven't heard much about in general, but I have a membership with) And so I would like to ask the community here about their thoughts and experiences of and with addy.io

If you're able to explain their ownership structure and the like too, that would be appreciated, given that proton is a non-profit, which is an upside for it.

Its quite good. Its ran by a single person and is self hostable (I think).

There's not much difference besides the plans, so if the proton controversy is enough for you to jump ship then by all means, do it

It's not just the controversy, but I've been planning a re-do of my internet services for a while now, and this seemed a good time to ask around, given others are likely doing the same

Well then i recommend addyio, bitwarden, tuta/mailbox/posteo whatever, and ente auth (or aegis/2fas but you need to manually back them up)
