I made a Proton account yesterday to start actually fully de-googling myself. It felt really good. I recommend it.

Proton email has huge improvements in usability also like:

  • A search function that actually works and is intuitive
  • The ability to actually block accounts rather than sending them to spam
  • Ability to block entire domains
  • "All mail" actually contains all mail (like, wow!)

Etc. I still have to use Gmail for work and the number of times I just say "oh I must have missed that" due to the sheer volume of spam in my inbox and the inability to filter anything effectively or find anything I actually need is too damn high.
