Suggestions for Email/ Calendar (lemmy.world)

I am looking for a privacy respecting (and ideally E2EE supporting) email/ calendar/ contacts provider.

I had previously used ProtonMail up until a few months ago when the CEO started getting political (bummer).

I've since been using TutaMail, and while it's a bit rough on the UI/UX, I do appreciate that the team behind it seems very privacy focused. One problem here though, is that family that is also using this is ending up in spam folders when emailing others (I guess Tuta is more likely to be flagged as spam).

Does anyone have any suggestions for alternate providers?

I'm also still using Proton for email and calendar, but I've heard about Fossify Calendar and have been meaning to look into it.

For contacts I have a Nextcloud instance running that I sync my contacts up to and use the stock GrapheneOS contacts app.

Fossify Calendar is a standard android calendar that pulls from the built-in android calendar storage. You can use any standard calendar like Fossify or Etar to mention two open source apps, much in the same way that you sync your nextcloud contacts to the built-in android contact storage. Any standard contacts app can interact with your nextcloud-stored'n'synced contacts.

Running Nextcloud for tasks, calendar and contacts on a self-hosted server is one of the more private solutions.
