    Proton Mail vs Gmail Comments

    Top Positive Comment by John Fastman ·

    Protonmail is free, open-source, encrypted (more private). Lacks: calendar & good contacts feature, but these are in the pipeline. Protonmail cannot by design data-mine your software for it's own profit; Gmail makes it's money by violating your privacy that way.

    Better than Gmail but i prefer tuta because they are more focused in FOSS alternatives, where as proton have some propietary services and didn't care as much of other stuff (as windows usage) But great improvement over gmail, for sure!

    Positive comment by Shaz Shah ·

    Proton Mail is my primary email and I have been moving away from GMail. In fact I do pay for it.

    Proton Mail has been reliable and their support has been great. The UI is different and pleasant, and they have apps that cater for different platforms (Windows, macOS, Android, etc).

    Tuta Mail vs Gmail Comments

    Top Positive Comment by justinterested ·

    Tutanota is a great email provider with very good encryption (it uses end-to-end encryption like Signal – i.e. they cannot read your emails/gife them to the government, Gmail can!) and they don't sell any data. It is also very easy to use, it has a very nice app, a desktop client and a web client. There is really no reason why you wouldn't want to use it :)

    Does not support POP/IMAP, you will not be able to use it with Thunderbird or another email client.

    Positive comment by Raposu ·

    Works great and it will be a great substitute for someone looking to fully degoogle (They even use their own push service rather than Playstore's and they always support FOSS stuff as Linux, GrapheneOS and others...) If you just want your own mail and calendar this is perfect, E2EE. without AI and with their own apps :D

    Works well but it isn't for beginners (normies). Use this if you are tech-savy

    Top Negative Comment by Guest ·

    Lack of labels - only folders. Poor and broken search function on web client (seems to scramble email details in results?) Unable to send through external addresses. Does not group multiple separate emails from same sender. No multiple star colours

    Positive comment by venture2935 ·

    Not as robust as Gmail but good enough if all you need is basic stuff.

    Cheap and focused on renewables

    It's open-source, easy to use, compatible with IMAP, and not spying on you. To top it off, it also supports encryption and PGP!

    Infomaniak kMail vs Gmail Comments

    Positive comment by Guest ·

    You have all the functions you need in workspace, like Gmail. Fully customizable, high security. This product is professional. I use it since 2 year, and I don't want to return to Gmail. Only one point : you need a domain name. But it's more original like a Gmail.com address...

    Much better than Gmail. And now you don't need a domain anymore, it's free for everyone.
