Any mail service that supports PGP encryption at rest, like mailbox, is better than proprietary solutions like Tuta or Proton, as it lets you manage your own encryption key, and use any client you want.
Proton was born out of a desire to build an internet that puts people before profits, create a world where everyone is in control of their digital lives, and make digital freedom a reality.
Nah, they had more followers on Mastodon than on Bluesky when they left (and even now). It was because they were getting roasted on Mastodon after CEO's comments and other stuff like adding a crypto wallet.
One thing that Proton does better than Tuta - allowing PGP encryption. Like, if you want to send an encrypted Message with Tuta, to someone who doesn't have a Tuta account, it needs to be a link and a password.
The idea of E-Mail is that it should be as vendor agnostic as possible. Tuta has a walled garden vibe. Securely e2e with other tuta users, but unencrypted with pretty much everyone else.
Though it also took quite a while for Proton Mail to integrate PGP properly.

I only understand half of those words, but I am very happy with mailbox.org. So yeah, go PGP!

Also trust at face value everything you read on the internet.
