Looking to create an email account for a new position. Which would be best out of Gmail, Proton, Fastmail?
Doesn’t need to be tied to a domain, so happy to use the default.

Proton is the way. Solid free tier and you can use your own domain with the paid tier

Gmail's search function has degraded to garbage now, can't even find emails I type the exact subject in word for word. Go with fastmail, protonmail or really anyone else at this point.

I think gmail is definitely worth it. They have the best spam filtering, interface is pretty clean and it’s ubiquitously trusted
The main disadvantage though is the privacy you give up, and the expensive premium tier… if you ever need it

Fastmail is wonderful; I can't recommend it enough.

Yes, unless you have a axe to grind with Google.

Proton more for their growing ecosystem of tools

proton.me is more preferable than gmail. Ever since the removed all spam filers, and just inboxed everything - its been a poor experience. And all managing functions in web gmail are lame - so one good practice is connect via thunderbird and use that to mas organize and clean if you never use a desktop client.
But for your personal email, as it were, Protonmail's proton.me is +1

mailfence.com
.No IMAP with the free account.
Paid plans are cheap and provide IMAP
