    Owning your own domain is great that way. Even makes the little bit I pay to ProtonMail well worth it. There are a few addresses I have dedicated, like my aws@example.com, me@, and my-name@, but the rest just go to a catch all. It’s fantastic.

      My mail is hosted by my domain host but I am considering switching to Proton. Have you done such a move?

        I made that move and had no issues. You can copy/paste your way through DNS setup and the rest is just configuring your proton account how you want.

        You’ll want to be familiar with proton and some of the tradeoffs in its privacy model, but it’s most likely more feature-full than a hosting provider. Dreamhost, for one, is quite basic.
