Proton has stopped using their Mastodon account
-
We dont use real names on the internet for a reason.

This might sound crazy but this is way worse to me than the CEO simping for orange man. At least for Trump he has a semi plausible excuse.
Reposting stuff on Mastodon or Bluesky barely requires any additional effort. And I cannot think of a good reason to close abandon the free publicity when they already have it set up.

It's a sad day when "you can find us over on Discord" is a better option.

Here is the tweet
I know exactly what you're referring to.
if that's not the most flagrant Trump bootlicking, I don't know what is
I agree, you don't know what is.
And here is the backpedal
I don't see anything here that could be construed as backpedaling. If he were smart he would have, but if anything, he doubled down several times.
I believe what I read.
You didn't read that, you made it up.

At least personally I agree with the part of his statement about the corporate capture of the democratic party, I don't think that's the part most people have a problem with imo. It was saying that republicans are now the party of the little guy, or more likely to tackle abuses by big tech that was dumb. Obviously neither party is going to seriously go after any abuse or anything, but the richest tech CEO is blatantly running the country under the republican president, so saying they're "more likely" to help is straight up a lie lol. I don't think calling Andy a fascist is correct either, but I also very much disagree with his opinions of the republican party. Under either party billionaires and corporations are in control, but Trump is definitely not making that better at all.
And honestly all things considered Lina Khan was a pretty great FTC chair tbh, and Johnathan Kanter was pretty decent as the head of the antitrust division too. He was probably a lot better than Gail Slater will be. She's literally a VP in a few different big companies, so touting her as a champion of the people against the abuses of big tech feels either misinformed or disingenuous.

Any alternative free VPN's

Any alternatives for their VPN service with port forwarding?

The labeling idea is pretty interesting, an email service with inbuilt proxy, but your website is pretty light on details. Stuff like pricing or custom domain support.

Private internet access is nice
-
Good point. I’ll add that.
I’m working on custom domain support right now. And pricing is pretty straightforward, since I only have extra storage and sending options. You get 500MB for free, and the ability to receive email. Sending is $1/month. I put that behind a paywall to prevent spammers from using Port87. As a small email service, if you send spam, the big players can blocklist you and kill your service. So, keeping my SMTP servers’ IP address reputation high is really important.

It's kind of stupid to say that Republicans aren't the party of big business anymore. Both parties are parties of big business.
-
If you want to claim it was a stupid thing to say, I will agree with you 100%. If you want to claim that it was a tacit endorsement specifically of Trump, you are just wrong and spreading disinformation.

I feel like those resources are about to get even more limited.

No. They're a non profit with a specific mission to further the enhancement of provacy. Under Swiss law they're legally obligated to adhere to this. Which means they can't collect user data willy nilly and sell it.
Also, it wouldn't make sense for a non-profit organization to profit from selling user data.

"No you don't get it! Supporting trump isn't really supporting trump! Just bc he likes the guy's policy and endorsed him doesn't mean he endorsed him!"
-
"Anyone who disagrees with me is a Trump supporter and a nazi!"
See, I too can make up things that you didn't say and put it in quotes and pretend like you did.
-
Found the Nazi
You know sucking off CEOs won't make them treat you any better than anyone else right?
-
Btw tell me why they left mastodon and bluesky, and why they're still on Twitter. gimme a good reason that isn't him being a Nazi
-
A perfectly guided opinion. You do get why the CEO likes Trump and left the fediverse while staying on Twitter, right?
