e-mail services I'm currently testing for #accessibility - proton, @Tutanota then Infomaniak and @mailbox_org
As folders and messages managing via screen reader and keyboard, MailBoxOrg, a service from Berlin, seems to be the best. It's paid only.
Proton is in the middle, while infomaniak is interesting for the amount of services it provides in basic plan and as it's affordable in price, unfortunately Tuta, which I'd have promoted as the best for first period of 2025, since summer it has became almost impossible to use through web. And phone, as it's not native, it's quite difficult to use as a blind person.
I wonder if there are even other secure, privacy-oriented, Europe-based and open source, accessibility-friendly even more of those characteristics together, for me to try.
I want GMail to stay just here for newsletters and stupid ads, but I need a very reliable service for personal e-mail messages.
Yes, I even considered self-hosting my e-mail into my web site's provider. But give to doctors, shops, tech assistance and so on, a complicated address such as something at plusbrothers dot net! Especially if they speak no english!
For that purpose now I have nickname at pm dot me, with proton, that seems the best option. But a little Trump Oriented, I fear.

in reply to André Polykanine • • •So I have got mostly used to web mail interfaces.
Tuta itself has a desktop client, but without web mail I can't properly use it, due to the fact I do not have always the same machine and configuration, while every workstation has a browser.
Nothing prevents me from using different e-mail providers depending on my specific needs. But when they start to cost much money, then everything becomes unaffordable.
