I'd love to leave the Gmail/Outlook universe as much as the next guy, but I don't think a Google Workspace account at $8/month counts as "big bucks" does it? And Outlook is $4/month(?) for the Web-only version (without the Office suite apps). Seems like a reasonable price for reliable email.

Fastmail, Proton, and Tuta exist as well.

Ah, for some reason I recalled Workspace being a lot more expensive than that. That seems fine for me indeed.

They keep raising the prices, of course, so maybe it's different if it's a new account today? I started at $6/month, then it got to $15 within a few years. Because of the forced Gemini this last week, I downgraded my Workspace account yesterday back to "basic" for $8.
