Before you compare EU email providers, get your own domain. It is the single change that lets you switch providers later without redoing the painful migration.
I have a complicated surname, so when people ask for my email I just show them my ID and say “firstname@lastname.de” and they can type it in, reading it off the card.
It’s made my life so easy!
I also kept all of my spam mails of the last twenty years and trained rspamd with it. It’s got a 99.9% success rate. I’d even argue it works better than some corporate mail providers (what also helps is that I provide the mail service for friends & family as well and we are all collectively training the database).
It was a pain to setup initially, but I don’t want to miss it.
