You have to accept that privacy costs money because your data isn't being sold. For $5+ a month you can use proton Mail or tutanota. For ~$2 a month you can use Zoho mail or Titan mail.
Whatever you choose, it will be worth it.

If you set up a domain with Protonmail, you can have unlimited email addresses for that domain, although they all go to the same inbox that way. I like to use a website's name as the user when I sign up with a website, so it's like [email protected]. If I start getting emails to that address from somebody other than Office Depot, I know those rat-bastards sold me out.

With Proton Pass it will even generate those fake emails for you. No need to tweak any settings. And the best part is that you're not forced to use the password manager that goes with it.
