I started using Proton for their VPN about 5 years ago, and the mail was there so I started using it too. In the last year Proton has expanded to a full privacy option with VPN, email, calendar, drive and even password.
Though the usability of its products is not yet on par with Google's, Proton has indeed become a great one-in-all solution nowadays. Migrating from Google feels great but I'm just worried about putting all my eggs in one basket again...
A secondary email is a good thing. I have one account I use for everything important (tax, bank, insurance, bills, personal correspondance) and the other is protonmail which I use for Facebook, craigslist, uber, dentist, etc.
