Non-US alternatives to digital services
-
Fastmail is really, really nice.
-
Long time customer and super happy with Fastmail. Its a bit pricy but the service is great.
-
-
https://makertube.net/ is the PeerTube instance that I've been using, and it's been great.
-
I joined Fastmail almost a month ago and am really enjoying it, I especially like the integrated masked emails.
-
Yeah it could be argued that Fastmail is less private than alternatives, but they make a damn good service. Plus email shouldn’t be used for secure communication anyways.

-
I went over to purelymail.
It's not fancy encrypted like proton, but it's very affordable and straight forward to set up for your own domains.
-
I think OVH would be a good choice.
-
You are an intelligent person, as long as the service is not impacted, well you good
-
Moderation is actually good on Matrix, also XMPP is a good alternative as well

-
The only downside is that Tuta doesn't provide an
.onionservice as Proton does (although they leak clearnet links left and right)... even though they apparently plan to. -
-
-
Hetzner support is usually quite good, something I can't say of the (albeit much more limited) experiences with OVH.
-
Not just that, but frankly for a company like Proton it's prudent to "cry along with the wolves, lest you get killed" ...
As long as Proton's products still stand on their own in the light of the Trump regime I don't think it is useful at all to torch the company because of remarks of its ceo now that Trump is in office...
Ofcourse one can frown and be miffed but there are far worse companies out there that everyone uses, and people shrug off direct comments of anyone on the board of directors.
