Looking to leave GMAIL and am currently testing Proton for a $1 a month. So far it's pretty good and the issue I have is not with Proton, but with who I'm sending messages to. If I send an email to a gmail account my information is still sitting on a Google server. So is Proton worth it? Is something like Fastmail just as good over all due to how email works? With Fastmail I can get email for my whole family for $14 a month. I won't have the VPN, ProtonPASS and other Proton apps, but are they worth the $12 a month for one person?

If you don't want anyone to read your emails the best method is just to encrypt the main text with PGP keys, note you cant really encrypt the email's metadata though . If you're looking for a good email experience I would 100% recommend buying a custom domain I love mine.
