For email. well this is tricky. because gmail is generally good and fast. I tried proton. didnt like it. tried skiff. got sunset. tried zoho. lock in email.

in the ned, i opt for https://inbox.lv and https://mail.ee (same company different domain). they gave generous 20gb of storage, with IMAP and SMTP. very reliable.

For apps I use edison mail (android) and geary (linux) . no complains tbh. I am using it for my professional use.
