Trying to de-google and looking for an alternative to Gmail.

Don't mind if it's a paid service if it's robust.

Try proton mail. I love it

Yeah, Proton are working on delivering a privacy-focused replacement for the whole google suite. Mail, drive, calendar so far, plus VPN. OP could do a lot worse. :)

Yeah I'll go Proton. Was going to go with Fastmail but then read that they're an Australian company, a Five Eyes country.

It's quite expensive whereas you get the same product even better for 12€ a year with posteo.de

Posteo doesn't allow you to use your own domain, do they? I know OP didn't ask for that but it's a really, really good idea to put your email addresses on a domain that you own.

Still, it would be a definite step up from Google.

Proton imo is definitely the winner here, since Gmail itself also relies on integration with a bunch of cloud apps
