That’s the benefit of a custom domain, I suppose; you can always change he provider without changing your email.

Yup, I just signed up for Tuta with a custom domain. If they start sucking, I'll move to Proton or something else.

You should be aware Tuta won't let you use a third party client, automatically forward messages, or do a mass export of your email. It's not impossible to move but they deliberately make it difficult. So does Proton in their own away.

They'll say it's about maintaining the security of your emails and such, but it's just a vender lock in tactic.

Proton allows you to export as eml or mbox. Seems fine to me?

And they support automatic forwarding to external addresses, provided you're on a premium plan, which you need to be for a custom domain.
