I saw Nubo mentioned in a thread a while back but there were only a few comments. Does anyone use Nubo? What has your experience been like?

    The thing I’d look for is encryption by default. I glanced at your link and it did not seem to be encrypted by default, so I don’t like it already. 🤔 Also they block Tor traffic from even seeing their site, kinda annoying when Proton and Tuta both allow Tor traffic, I had to use a non-Tor browser (over VPN) to access it.

    https://www.privacyguides.org/en/email/#technology

    Privavy Guides .org seems to be what everyone (on Lemmy/Reddit privacy forums) use as a standard guide for privacy.

    Basically their recommened besides Proton are:

    Tuta

    Or Mailbox.org

    both seem to be encrypted by default

    I can’t seem to find a Mailbox.org client on F-Droid, only Tuta is on F-Droid. So I personally choose Tuta with custom domains. You’ll want custom domains to be able to mvoe providers easily.

          Mailbox.org works with IMAP so you can use a regular email program. The mailbox is not encrypted by default but I saw that there’s an option to enable it involving PGP keys.

            I mean, if its not encrypted by default, I personally would avoid.

            I could always use PGP on top on any provider, encrypted or not, might as well also go with ones that also encrypt by default.

          AFAIK, Mailbox.org was once open source, but has not very recently become closed source. PrivacyGuides.org recommends it, as does Tresorit (encrypted cloud storage), for example, which is closed source and is one of the services I use. Providers that implement encryption, have been audited, have been on the market for years, and have a clean track record of security or privacy scandals, which there aren’t many of these types of services these days. But I personally don’t like them and try my best to avoid closed source softwares as well.

          In conclusion, PrivacyGuides mostly recommends open source software but also recommends some that are not based on their features, reputation, security and maturity.
