I’ve been using Protonmail for a while now and it’s only gotten better.

Proton Mail, Tutanota or Skiff should be good alternatives for you. Avoid any e-mail provider without EE2E and zero knowledge architecture.
I currently have an account on all three, but my daily is Skiff.
More important than e-mail provider to control spam is to use a unique e-mail address for each account you own. That could be attainable using e-mail aliases or e-mail forwarding services. Look up Simple Login, AnonAddy or even DuckDuckGo E-mail Protection for more information. Putting it simple, you create a different alias for each account. They all forward to your main e-mail inbox under different aliases. If needed, you can cancel the aliases thus ending spam from that origin.
I find it a very effective technique and my inbox is always pristine.

Would recommend mailbox.org or posteo.de.

Check out Posteo!
I will have a look, dunno why you’ve been downvoted

I can only second Posteo. Using their services for years now, I can confirm that Posteo is caring about security, data protection and the environment (using green energy). Also you do not need to provide your mobile-phone number or personal information and you can use standard OTP apps to secure the weblogin when you want to use 2-Factor.
I am using several accounts shared between Thunderbird on Desktop and K-9 on Android.
The only issues I have is, when sending to some US providers that still do not have TLS (“Transportwegesicherung”) implemented. In this case I have to manually deactivate the “TLS-Versand-Garantie”-option in Posteo settings, before the email can be send. Happens twice a year or so.
Maybe the Posteo suggestion gets downvoted, because their mail services indeed cost money (instead of scanning your communication and selling your data). But I find 1€ per account per month a good deal for what you get.

I’ve been a posteo user since 4 years and it has worked perfectly for me, totally recommended

ProtonMail and Tutanota

Anything else but G.
Despite of hypes about encryption, most of the email providers are about the same (as long as the provider is reliable and trustworthy enough).
However, make sure to isolate email addresses for different purposes as any of the providers can read your email (unless it’s end to end encryption)
