Ouch! They really are working hard on getting any privacy oriented person to leave them.

I'm glad I have moved away from them.

fleeing to reddit of all place, banning any instance of discourse, much like facebook is now.

Yeah, all the scumbags who use this just for advertising only tried mastodon to see if it would have a significant amount of useful idiots.

Glad I was always suspicious of Proton.

From the statement on their webpage: " We believe in people before profits, and our primary shareholder is the non-profit Proton Foundation whose mission is to fight for an open internet that promotes freedom of speech and freedom of information."

What kind of expensive resources you need to just post on Mastodon?

Well this is certainly one of the decisions of all time. I guess we finally got our reaction from the board. I was waiting, hoping to hear some rebuke of Yen’s bullshit. Didn’t expect another intentional step into shit. Bye Felicia.

Welp, I guess I'm switching to Tuta now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

I just set up a paid account on Tuta today replacing my paid Proton account.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Everyone recommends Tuta in these threads.

I just (finally) had a look at their pricing. Seems egregiously expensive? 6EUR / user / month for their cheapest business plan is a bit nuts

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Much rather not maintain any email in any way.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Congratulations, you are no longer available to function in today's society

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think their comment was tongue in cheek :) like they're saying you need to pay for server maintenance

That’s what Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Google Workspace Starter, and Proton Mail Essentials are all priced at. Seems like the market price to me

Switched to Mullvad for VPN, Baikal for calendar and contacts, Tuta for professional mail, and considering Bitwarden or Buttercup for a password manager

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Wow, that's so many different services to splinter one Proton account into. I was thinking about it too, but that sounds exhausting.

I use Bitwarden coming from LastPass. It's great for me and my fam.
