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 1 day ago

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day 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

Much rather not maintain any email in any way.

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

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.

Pointing people to reddit, as if that's an alternative. When a VPN provider makes such bad choices it's tempting to imagine that the decision was influenced by somebody who wants to secretly get the message out that the company is no longer to be trusted, because it's hard to see any other logic in it.
