Trying to de-google and looking for an alternative to Gmail.

Don’t mind if it’s a paid service if it’s robust.

    This is what I’m most concerned about with moving away from Gmail. I have literally everything associated with my Google email address and, since almost every website uses email as credentials, it means I’ll have to create new accounts for everything. If I move to a new email, I’m worried if they go belly-up or just flat out close my account then I’ll lose access to everything.

    I’ll have to look into using an alias, that would clear up a lot of my concerns.

      That’s not called an alias, it’s called owning your own domain name so you can take it with you to any email service.

      Email aliases mean something different (giving a website an address like thatwebsite@my.domain instead of realmailboxaddress@my.domain).
