    I highly recommend Proton Mail. Their email phone app and webapp are very good and they seem to be branching out into other services like calender integration and VPN. I’ve been working on reducing my reliance on Google services for awhile, but it has been very slow with how many accounts I’ve registered using my Gmail over the years.

    The only problem I’ve had with Proton Mail is that the free tier on the phone doesn’t let you have two emails logged in at once. Normally I would want my real identity email and my internet identity email to be logged in at the same time. Which is doable in the webapp at least. I may end up paying the $3 a month not just to unlock this feature, but to support a non-Google service in general.

      If you’re on Android, you can download Shelter from F Droid. This creates a work profile on your device, then you can clone any app to get a second login. I have several apps that I have separate simultaneous logins.

      I love Proton Mail, been using it for over a year now and it’s been great. Phone app and web app work great, has all the features I need.

      Their proton VPN has been really good too. A lot of people complain about it on Linux and Android, but I personally haven’t had any issues at all on either platform.
