I wish I switched to these guys when I left google. I chose a large provider in India because I just wanted to support them.

But I did not realise that the Indian government has gone so fascist that they are even ahead of USA, and far more authoritarian than Britain.

It took over a year to get everyone to switch to my new email address so I can’t really ask this of people again. But I’ll suggest it to others who are looking for recommendations.

    This is why a bought a domain. I'm going to do a similar change, but I hope it's forever.

    I think countries should have a free domains for normal people to do the same, and prevent these companies from having power over something that's basically a utility and necessity, based on a decision you made once in your life when you were 13.

    Yes, someone did suggest this to me at the time but it was too much for me then to figure out DKIM, DMARC and SPF then. Not something the average person can do.

    Nations providing free (or at least consistent) domains is an excellent idea.
