I've got a couple of e-mail addresses with the main providers, but I'm looking to switch to an ad-free and more secure provider.

I've been looking at ProtonMail, but what do you guys use or recommend?

I've had nothing but positive experiences with Posteo. Their features list is very good for the pittance they charge per month.

I agree. I also use Posteo. Their privacy policy and website seem to be one of the most sane ones. They also allow you to use external email clients.

im just overwhelmed by the endless flood of minor services that leach "a dollar here.. a dollar there". add them all up and they drain you dry.
skip some and you lose essential coverage. "just $2 more a month.. i swear bro! "

Posteo isn't a monthly charge to your credit card. It uses a credits that you can top up whenever you feel like it. I usually put in a year's worth of credits in advance which costs me around $17CAD.
