What do you want to use it for? Proton is decent if it’s an anonymous account. If it’s going to receive any information about you irl then I’d buy a domain and forward to fastmail.
It’s really just for sharing audio files and miscellaneous shit with bandmates
Then I’d consider it a fairly public account associated with you and do the domain + mx record thing. The advantage is that you can switch mail providers without changing addresses and vice versa.

Isn’t riseup literally run by feds or smth and its TOS explicitly anticommunist

Their whole staff are named after bird species.
Protonmail is the best for burner e-mails, prob the best free email service in terms of security/functionality and not having your inbox crawled to build an advertising profile. I wouldn’t consider it secure (use with a VPN if you’re ever doing something the feds would potentially investigate) but it’s certainly more private than Google
I wouldn’t trust VPNs for much more than avoiding copyright strikes from your ISP but I’m willing to be corrected
Yeah, that’s fair — I was thinking about a case of the french(?) feds getting the IP address of a left wing activist from protonmail and tracking them down based on that, but I suppose depending on the VPN that might just add one extra layer the feds have to go through to find you.
