Ask HN: HN What are some good alternatives to Gmail?

I've had my gmail account for as long as I can remember but I'm looking to switch. What does HN use for personal email with regards to privacy, spam protection and features?

I use Gmail for personal email, Zoho for business email. In the future I will be purchasing server hardware for the website and stuff. At that point I'll probably be moving to self-hosted email using something like Mail-in-a-Box.

Haven't tried myself but if you're willing to pay for your privacy (you not being the product), hey.com seems promising (https://www.hey.com)
