What's the free solution to having a custom email domains for side projects (instead of gmail)?

Question

So instead of having to do myproject@gmail.com
Be able to do hello@myproject.com

Google workspace is at least $6/mo which feels like too much if I have a few side projects.

If you don't want additional mailbox. Try Cloudflare email routing. Basically you'll route all emails incoming at hello@example.com to your gmail id. Then you can continue the conversation with just clicking reply all. Though not good in perspective of branding but best option for getting started.
