An objective comparison of private and/or secure email services
🌐 email-comparison.as93.net

The aim of Email-Comparison is to provide an objective comparison of so-called private and/or secure email services, so that you can make an informed decision about which provider to use.

This is a community-maintained resource, so if you spot something that should be updated/added/removed, please submit a pull request or raise an issue. Or share your thoughts and feedback for an email provider, by writing a short review.

• 📧 All data is stored in email-provider-data.yml (in YAML format).
• ⭐ All mail service reviews are submitted here, via GitHub Discussions.
• 🌐 Website published to email-comparison.as93.net is built with Lit on Astro.

The info is most easily consumed via the website, which can be accessed at: email-comparison.as93.net

Contributions of any type are welcome!

To submit changes, fork the repository, edit the file, commit changes, then submit a pull request back to this repo.
