I saw Nubo mentioned in a thread a while back but there were only a few comments. Does anyone use Nubo? What has your experience been like?

    The thing I’d look for is encryption by default. I glanced at your link and it did not seem to be encrypted by default, so I don’t like it already. 🤔 Also they block Tor traffic from even seeing their site, kinda annoying when Proton and Tuta both allow Tor traffic, I had to use a non-Tor browser (over VPN) to access it.

    https://www.privacyguides.org/en/email/#technology

    Privavy Guides .org seems to be what everyone (on Lemmy/Reddit privacy forums) use as a standard guide for privacy.

    Basically their recommened besides Proton are:

    Tuta

    Or Mailbox.org

    both seem to be encrypted by default

    I can’t seem to find a Mailbox.org client on F-Droid, only Tuta is on F-Droid. So I personally choose Tuta with custom domains. You’ll want custom domains to be able to mvoe providers easily.

    Seems like it is only for Europeans (and possibly even excluding non-EU citizens)? I have been using Zoho (free account) for many years (since I got rid of GMail) and while not explicitly privacy-focused they are not a data collection operation like Google/Alphabet or Meta. They make their money through providing paid accounts to businesses (competing with Google Suite). I have been very satisfied with them. They provide very good 2FA options and apps and I also use their WorkDrive (previously Docs) and Notebook.

    I haven’t heard about nubo till now! Probably very few people here have experience with them. Looks promising, but kind of risky since we dont really know if its trustworthy or longstanding

    Consider this: when you were drawn to Proton, what was it that attracted you? Was it not some aspect of its promise or appeal? And now, as you move away from Proton, is it not the same discriminating mind that drives you to seek out another object of attachment?
