What Are Your Favorite Alternatives to Gmail or Outlook? (alien.top)

I'm contemplating taking control of my email by moving away from mainstream providers like Gmail or Outlook. What self-hosted email services have you tried, and which ones do you find most reliable and user-friendly? Are there any challenges or advantages you've encountered in making the switch?

I can't remember if it was Proton, but i remember reading about some laws being approved where (I think) Proton servers are that would make them comply for disclosure if necessary. Not that it matters much unless you're doing illegal stuff, i believe i found this while researching the differences between Tuta and Proton.
