Yeah, I'm about to the point where I'm just going to buy a domain and host my own email server.
Buy a domain sure, but just use paid protonmail and use it with the domain you bought. It takes a few minutes to set up, and if protonmail ever goes to shit, you still own the email address. Maintaining your own email server just isn't worth it imo.
NextCloud might be worth looking up. You own the server.
