    I can deal with Andy Yen being a dumbass in his own time, but the official Proton reddit account doubling down on this shit is over the line for me.

    I literally just renewed for 2 years a couple days ago. I will be looking for alternatives and hopefully I can get a partial refund or something.

        Unfortunately I made the mistake of really digging myself into the Proton ecosystem.

        My current plan is:

        VPN -> Mullvad

        Mail -> Tuta

        Pass -> Bitwarden (not sure if I want to host yet)

        Drive -> Nextcloud (Self-Hosted)

        Calendar -> Nextcloud (Self-Hosted)

        Standard Notes -> Memos (Self-Hosted) (already done)

        Simple Login -> no fucking clue, I am dreading migrating these.

            Mostly because if I’m going to go through the trouble of maintaining a Nextcloud instance, I might as well use its calendar to maintain more control of my data. If Nextcloud gives me trouble down the line (as it tends to do in my experience) then I’ll give Tuta’s calendar a try.

            I’m optimistic for Nextcloud though, the latest AIO docker versions seem solid.

            I looked into this because I’m considering switching to them, and it seems like they only support it for custom domains.

        Do you happen to know any alternatives for their email? Some security guy on YouTube was talking about how their email aliasing is better because if you lose a single email/password combo, you’re not subject to any other breaches.

        I mean I already use a password manager since I adopted KeePass like 15 years ago and use Bitwarden now, but I still like that concept.

          Posteo or tuta or fastmail.

          Depends on if anyone you message uses proton. If they do, you can always get their pgp key and save it to thunderbird. If nobody you know uses proton, there is no benefit to their service over the above.
