    Any alternatives for their VPN service with port forwarding?

    There are none of them as good as Proton.

    For example, AirVPN hasn't had any security audits and doesn't seem too interested in them either due to monetary concerns. That's a deal breaker for me.

      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.

      And I’d have thought the potential customers are exactly the Mastodon users.

        How about you go read about the foundation before making any judgements.

        I'm well aware of the foundation, and the fact that they have left him on the board with zero consequences or controls.

        Stating your ethics and then not enforcing them makes the statement pointless.

            I'll sometimes agree with stuff Trump does too, like appointing Tulsi Gabbard, but I'm not going to say this means Republicans have become the party of anti war lol

              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.

                There was one (1) post on their r/protonmail, asking why they abandoned Mastodon. That post is gone now... Stay away from Proton lol

                    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.

                      Gross. I’m slowly moving from ProtonMail to Port87, which is kind of embarrassing because I made Port87. Switching email providers is hard though. You have to update everything.

                      Unless you use a custom domain. That way you only need to update everything once.

                          Nothing good is free.

                          I've been pretty happy with PIA.

                              Yep. Definitely worth the ten bucks a year. Also it lets you get your own DMARC reports, which can be useful sometimes.

                                Is there a free DMARC reports analyzer? I don't want to pay for a premium service (it's my personal email, after all), and I don't like Postmark free service.

                                  I don’t know. I just read the XML. It’s pretty easy to read. I’m sure there’s a tool out there though.

                                      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)

                                        Yea this is worse. The politics thing could be brushed off as Andy Yen being uneducated on American politics. Moving away from an already established fediverse platform is contradictory to Proton's mission. It doesn't take more than a minute to copy paste their xitter posts to Mastadon.

                                          They have tools that let you cross-post effortlessly, so that’s strange.
