Switched from gmail to Protonmail and Outlook to Tuta.io and love it! Companies that put privacy and the individual first.

How is spam filtering compared to gmail.

Afraid to switch as gmail spam filtering is excellent

I've been using Protonmail as my primary address for a few years now. I'm yet to have a single spam email make it to my inbox. In comparison, I use my gmail less and I've had a few blatant crypto scams make it to my inbox.

I'm not saying for certain that it's better than Gmail's, but that's my experience so far.

I've been using proton for a few months now with a yearly Mail Plus subscription and I have yet to receive an actual spam e-mail. Your experience might be different than mine since I take precautions not to invite spam in the first place, but even then, Proton looks to be doing an excellent job

Honestly I’ve not experienced any on either of them!
