            I'm only missing tag support on emails from them. In my ever growing archive, I came to realize, that tags are better suited for organizing than folders.

            Ideally I would archive in yearly folders and also tag as much as I can.

              Much rather not maintain any email in any way.

                I'm glad I have moved away from them.

                          Tuta is €3.60 a month or €3 a month if you pay for an entire year (€36) not sure if that's "cheap" in your budget.

                          A .com domain is like $12 per year

                          Tuta takes like 48 hours to respons, slower than Proton who takes about 12-24 hours, but as long as the response is under 1 week, its fine by me.

                          I have only been using Tuta for like a month, still not sure if I'm staying tho...

                          There's also Mailbox.org which is also about €3 a month, which doesn't have encryption by default and they don't have an official opensource client. (Tuta has their client on F-Droid)

                          Are you talking about support request response time here? Or what response time?

                            Support response time. In my experience, Proton usually responds faster.

                              They still offer free services, though.

                              Payed for by subscriptions. Protons free offerings (namely, the VPN) are severely crippled. The free tier VPN is almost trial like to sell you on the full product. I also haven't seen any of those youtuber sponsored -95% off deals other VPN providers have. Proton's pricing isn't exactly cheap which signals they do sell it at actual market rate instead of offering a cheap service which may or may not be subsidized by selling your data.

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

                                  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.

                                        I'm not, they are a bunch of researchers having their servers in the country with the most privacy protective laws in the world.

                                        Sure, criticise them when they do bad things, but what do you propose, google mail (etc.)?

                                        If you don't have some real information you are just following a gut feeling (which by the way is the simplest to manipulate) and I think that is kind of curious actually.

                                        I like Proton, I have their email & VPN, works like a charm, and their servers are in nuke safe bunkers in the swiss mountains.

                                        The only other company that I have seen that isn't shady like for sure seems to be Mullvad, I mean if you hate the swiss or something or prefer the swedes ...

                                          If your want to be hard headed about this, that's your problem.

                                          Yan isn't the only guy on the board of directors. The others are pretty fucking credible and knowledgeable people on the topic of privacy. They all make the decisions togetherness. And im pretty certain they'll have the last word and steer Proton in the right direction.

                                          Is it only me or is there some bandwagon effect on Proton hate these days?

                                          I get it that everyone, me included, thought that sucking up to donald is a shit move, but that's about it. Proton is good.
