I’ve been looking to switch from gmail to a different email provider that’s more private. I’ve been hearing about Tuta, are there any drawbacks to it? Are there better options?
For a while I was planning on making the switch to protonmail but that’s off the table now due to the recent events surrounding them.
I’ve used Tuta for more than 4 years. It’s a solid choice if you accept a couple few things:
-
they’re a small company, doing their best to survive.
-
you have to use their client apps. They take security very seriously and assume all of their users do as well.
-
prices might go up every few years but I am still paying my original rate, for my original features.
-
the search function does work but is very slow.
But otherwise, I’m very happy and expect to stay with them for the forseeable. Good luck in your search.
