I couldn't agree more. Using your ISP as your email account is going to
spell disaster if you ever move to a new location.

Although I don't run my own email server, I do have my own custom
domain, and I pay other companies to run it for me. That way I do not
have a single point-of-failure.

Aside from the obvious choice in Gmail, if you are interested in paid
options, I would recommend Mailfence. Their price is reasonable for
their features, and they are fairly privacy oriented. Protonmail is
another good alternative.
