    Custom domains are pretty cheap, and you can hook them up to Tutanota easily. Then you never have to spell it for anyone.

      That’s certainly true, but to catch mainstream it’s still a decent gap. My mom struggled even signing into Gmail. Think about their patience as you describe the process to configure DNS records? All while there are free options available.

      For us privacy focused folks it’s viable and I might consider it too.

        Tutanota isn’t suitable for many people. You can’t use standard email clients, screen readers don’t work with it, pinch to zoom it’s kind of iffy.

        I’d say for people who are either technologically inclined, or working for a company with a help desk to explain how to use it, it’s fine. Still got some rough edges. But it’s definitely not suitable for the elderly computer users
