AnonAddy VS Tutanota makes encryption easy

No limit to the number of aliases from which you can send/reply.

But you probably need to be a paid subscriber, at least €1/month.

That looks good, thank you. And being owned by Proton give me more trust, the other suggested here https://addy.io/ not that much.

With providers like Addy and SimpleLogin it is possible to use your own domain.

This is one of a few reasons I have started to use email forwarders such as AnonAddy.

Not all of my emails have been moved over yet, but over time I plan on depreciating almost if not all of my main emails from logins.

For receive-only e-mails, take a look at addy.io as a free alternative to DDG. It's easier to manage with an account page listing every alias you create, with the option to block if required.

I use https://anonaddy.com/

You can also try https://tuta.com/ and see if it works for you.

The essentials for me are private email, calendar & cloud storage. Here is my post-Google setup:

https://tuta.com/ is a German privacy-focused alternative that I'm currently using for email & calendar. Easy switch, although I was already using web clients rather than IMAP before the switch.

I looked at Proton Drive for cloud storage, but their CEO Andy Yen is a Trump supporter [1](https://archive.ph/2025.01.15-162500/https://www.reddit.com/...), which makes me question his decision-making.

I settled on a 5€ / month VPS from Hetzner and using Syncthing instead, but this requires some minimal amount of technical skills to set up and maintain.

There is no alternative to YouTube, unfortunately.

Last time I checked, while tutanota's emails are ostensibly E2E encrypted, all public keys are provided by their server and there's no way to pin keys or verify them over a side channel, so a compromised server could trivially send its own public keys and MITM attack all encrypted emails.

This completely defeats the purpose and guarantees of E2E encryption, but for some reason, it hasn't seemed to be a priority for them.

Hi HN, we are the developers from Tuta (formerly Tutanota), the German end-to-end encrypted email provider, and we recently released the world's first post-quantum encryption for email.

We have included a full technical write-up of the cryptography involved in these changes and we have released it for open public review.

This document specifies TutaCrypt, a protocol designed for hybrid email encryption in Tuta Mail. The protocol combines a classical Elliptic-Curve-Diffie-Hellman key exchange with a post-quantum KEM. The goal is to replace the usage of RSA in Tuta Mail.

In the remainder of this document we describe some preliminaries such as the cryptographic primitives used. We define the core algorithms of the protocol and describe the flow of messages between the communicating parties. Finally, we discuss the security properties and some limitations of the protocol in its current form.

We are eager for your constructive feedback. All cryptography related source code is available for review and experimenting here: https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/blob/master/src/api/worker...

If you have any questions or comments related to post-quantum cryptography please let us know in the comments!

Tutanota - Free secure email account service provider with built-in end-to-end encryption, no ads, no tracking. Free 1GB storage. Which is also partially open source, so you can self-host.

You are probably using a window manager and Electron is not able to detect the secret service backend you have installed. We recently switched to Electron’s built in api for storing credentials, which is the reason for this issue. https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/issues/6265
