Not interested in paying Google storage costs for gmail. Would very much like control over email.
Unfortunately every couple years when I look there’s no other good options.

Any new recommendations?

@onewil Free or paid options? If paid, I highly recommend Fastmail. I’ve used it for years and have had nothing but good experiences with it.
@mickelsp Paid is fine, thank you!
@onewil I’ve been using Fastmail for almost a decade now and love it. Native interface isn’t the best but integrates with most third-party apps and allows me to control my own domain.
