I use Hover for my personal domain, and added a "small mailbox" for my email address. For calendaring, I use iCloud, which works fine since I'm an iPhone user and that thing is _always_ with me. I switched my personal website (which I basically never utilize), from Blogger to GitHub Pages. Should I ever want to post things, the Jekyll integration will be plenty. At the moment the page has 90s style "under construction" notice, which I find mildly amusing and is all I wanted over Hover's own missing website page.
I looked at other options -- ProtonMail or FastMail -- but figured my needs were fairly basic. I don't use multiple mailboxes, I very rarely search my email history, iCloud handles my calendar (I had switch this up already), and I don't need a huge amount of space. After 10+ years on G Suite, my personal email was 1.5GB, so I figured any email host would work.
I didn't bother importing all of my email to the new Hover email, nor did I want to. Instead I archived my G Suite email and copy / pasted my current Inbox across, which was 20-some messages (I practice a slightly messy version of Inbox Zero). If I ever need to search the old email history, I'll import the old G Suite email archive to Thunderbird or Apple Mail.
About having my domain and email hosted by the same provider: I understand the risk, however I have managed to keep my personal website and email going consistently for over two decades, and I'm not terribly worried. Plus I have auto-renew enabled.
If you have iCloud+, you can add your domain to your account. I use Mail.app so I don't know how exactly to set up them in an email app (you receive email through your iCloud account in Mail.app). There is no real need to change, but it is a nice feature and as good as free.
