So, I’ve been de-googling, and moved my email and calendar to Proton, and I’ve been using their VPN for a while as well. I really like it, and it works extremely well for me.
But I am slightly annoyed by Proton’s choice to stop posting to Mastodon, and their CEO’s Trump comments. And I do like Tuta’s support for the Fediverse, and their better open-source implementation. But I’m wondering if it’s worth it to bother switching again. I tried making a ones month payment to try out both, and my card doesn’t want to pay for Tuta (It’s finicky about stuff outside the US).
So would it be better to just stick with Proton? Or try to manage to go over to Tuta?

If only you or your relatives use the domain, it’s pretty easy to link all the addresses. It’s pretty fair to assume that if a search doesn’t give anything, the domain is probably personal or used by a few people at best
My point was that using a custom domain makes you less anonymous than being on the regular proton domain
If you do not use aliases, it won’t change much, but at least your identity is not directly tied to the domain name

You’re completely right. I wrote privacy instead of anonymity
If you want to protect yourself from the ads industry an like having your own domain, then it’s pretty good
