    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.

    "State your ethics and then stand by them" is being hard headed?

    When the above is a bar too high for you to reach, that's a you problem, mate.

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

        It wasn't unprompted - he was literally replying to the announcement of the appointment on Twitter. An announcement of a person he thought would be great for a role that he's apparently been advocating for action against big tech in for years.

        He's born in 1988 you dolt.

        The ugliest thing about Lemmy I've noticed so far is that it enjoys disinformation just as much as Reddit - as long as it fits the circlejerk, updoots this way.

        Huh, I noticed you cherry picked two things to try to refute and ignored all the others I listed like his fandom for J.D vance while endlessly criticizing chuck Schumer, his statement that the GOP "was there for the little guy," his use of the term "triggered" to describe offending someone. Go on, keep excusing all the clear MAGA mask on indicators.

        How about you give those a shot too before you whine about disinfo?

            Well this is certainly only 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.

              I've been using Tuta for more than 8 years now and had one serious issue with their service during this time (longer outage, pretty early on). Other than that I have nothing but positive experience with them.
              They're also based in Germany if that makes any difference.

              I was debating between proton and tuta, but I was able to get first.last@tuta so I’m happy that worked out now.

                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

                    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

                      I use Posteo.net
                      German and secure email service.
                      But unfortunately the web frontend isn't quite as good, so if you are dependent on something like this then don't use it.

                          I'm searching for a safe and cheap alternative for my own domain, but it's hard! And I don't want to give money to American companies.

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

                                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."

                                          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.
