I guess their new free plan changes means they force you into linking your account with Google, make you spam done on a million websites as they try to make you change the email associated with them and to use their mobile app.

If you don’t do these things you lose your free data allowance!
And as a paid user it’s even more annoying shit to deal with when visiting your inbox!

The best part? Doesn’t even allow you to dismiss it.

Why does Proton keep making the UX worse and they are getting more aggressive.

    Huh, ok that’s interesting. I haven’t encountered that. I do remember seeing a pop up sometimes, but it’s not the one you’re seeing and it usually just happens one time on each account and doesn’t bother me again.

      Seems bugged. I assume it shouldn’t even be appearing for paid accounts. And the linking a Google account shouldn’t even be a thing at all.

        You keep saying linking a Google account, but nowhere do I see that happening. Setting up a mail forward is not in any way linking anything.
