If it's just for custom domain and email, then Infomaniak is yet another choice, on a price to features, unlimited storage (for email) and hosting country (privacy concerns with Apple and US, anyone?!?) ratio solution. I have recently moved my custom domain hosting from a more expensive service, to Infomaniak, and I got the first email address for free (the main from my Google workspace), to which I may add some more, if all works as expected, in the next month or so.

I took a glance at their website. Does it do all the things the original article mentioned? Like setup catchall email, route email to specific addresses (like I have 3 people in my family, Jane, Akbar, Jeff, jeff@mydomain.com goes to him, but everyone@mydomain.com goes to all of us, yet parents@mydomain.com goes to just the 2 parents). I want that, plus it's part of the current hodge podge of email verification standards so it won't be blocked as spam when I send from there.

That's the most valuable feature of goggle mail and domain hosting to me.

Read the https://www.infomaniak.com/en/support/faq/admin2 and contact their support. They are very detailed in responses, to any specific inquiries.
Gandi (https://www.gandi.net/en/domain/email) is another registrar with free email for each domain with them. It gives you two 3GB mailbox.
Seems like the email service is only available if you buy the domain from them or transfer the domain to them. I couldn’t find how one could use an existing domain that one owns without transferring to them.
Incorrect. One FREE address is only available if moving the domain. Paid emails are available no matter where the domain is registered. Read the https://www.infomaniak.com/en/support/faq/admin2
Looks like a very good option, thanks for the tip!

They're swiss based and this is their website:
