Wow. Just use Firefox and a $5/month email service. Where did this myth that privacy protecting applications were difficult to use come from? Firefox is just as easy as chrome, and Signal's only difficulty is getting other people to use it, not the UI. I understand actually ensuring your data doesn't leak is difficult, but the apps to use are certainly not difficult.
