What's a good alternative to Gmail? (meganice.online)

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

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

That's a good point, but also the more I think about it the more I realize it's futile. Google is 100% going to scan the messages I send to gmail users, and match it to me somehow.

With Tutanota the Gmail user only gets a link (optionally password protected). Google can’t scan the actual content of the mail.

Same with Proton if you enable encryption for emails to non-proton addresses
