You are confusing security with privacy. Im using protonmail, because its one of the very few Email-provider where one is able to register an account without providing any personal data. I dont have the need nor time nor skill to setup / maintain a emailserver. Simply because i distrust everything except my own laptop.
But your right, Gmail for sure is the better choice. For security (not privacy) you might wanna look into pgp, here you go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy Your welcome.
