Get your own domain and use that with Proton so you can take your email address to whatever email provider you want, or host your own. In the future, switching won't be nearly as hard since you'll just need to redirect the domain to the new email provider instead of changing your email address with everyone, again.

I did that, I don't have the time to change all my emails from my 15 years old Gmail account to proton.
So I'm just forwarding my emails from Gmail to Proton and started transitioning slowly. It's not perfect but better than staying on Gmail.
