I'm not ready to drop reddit entirely and to create accounts there I need an email address. I don't want to disclose my phone number or any other personal information.

I tried i2p, but for whatever reason, mail from reddit doesn't get its way to the inbox.

What other providers could I use?

Maybe Firefox Relay is an idea? Generate a random mask that you give to reddit and it forwards to your actual email address. Then you can block any further emails.

Or a duck duck go email, which is pretty much the same thing

Use an alias either through Proton, simple login (which Proton bought), or Mozilla

I don't use it myself, but I believe Proton (or Proton Mail?) doesn't require any additional info. At least back when I checked it out before. There's also mail.com, as well as a plethora of pros & cons lists for email providers out there to google (with add blockers).
