I mean bro, they aren’t really defending Proton here but rather they are calling out childish behaviour. Since why should I be downvoted for using an app? I didn’t even know Proton was so controversial up until now
If you were to take a look you would see that in another comment here I was already considering switching to Tuta. And guess what that person didn’t try to grief me
Just because you don’t agree to something doesn’t mean you should try to make it unpleasant for the other person, you could of just called out Proton without encouraging people to grief me
Great, hating on people because they don’t know something is surely the right thing to do. Just like how people beat children for making mistakes, they need to learn the hard way right?
My take is that Proton CEO Andy Yen’s pro-Trump comments were born out of naïvety, not the same mindset that plagues tech CEOs in the US. Combining that with Proton’s benign actions since then, I think it’s a good time to diversify, become familiar with alternatives like Tuta as you say, and make a backup plan should they enshittify, but don’t rush to jump ship now.
What you mean? You do realise most of us degoogle to get away from American grasp on technology, what’s the purpose of switching to Proton if there’s services even more independent?
The problem is I have been using proton for years and I have 385 entries so switching to say Tuta would be a drag (unless there is an option to migrate, I haven’t checked) Proton IIRC is also the cheaper of the two. Or would you say I should suck it up and make the switch?
I’m not sure, does managing two email accounts would be difficult for you? It wouldn’t be too bad having one extra, having some accounts on a different mail might work for you, if one gets hacked you don’t lose access to everything right away.
Also you don’t have to migrate all the entries right away, you can always just make new accounts on a new email provider, and if you do use password expiry in your pw manager you can migrate emails right then
It would have been helpful to explain why, whether that’s privacy, ethical, or political concerns.
But maybe the use of “🤣” says it all
And calling “bot” anyone who disagrees. Peak Reddit behaviour.
The peak Reddit behavior is the squadrons defending that crap 😂

“Childish behavior” is calling out a “privacy” company that does questionable stuff.
Noted.
Real mature bro, ignore my constructive criticism and just downvote me like a bot. You really are something
Don’t post your setup if you can’t stand criticism 😂
Yeah “criticism” = “Bring the downvote bots” you really like living in a delusion I see

AHAHAHAHAHAH
Don’t cry bro, I only told you to ditch an untrustable company which at first supported Trump and then was called out for silencing journalists.
I am 100% going to make it unpleasant for all who still use it, especially if they seem to care about privacy.

What are you blabbering about?
Keep using whatever you like, but I will still call crap the crap.
Cry me a river.
My man, you are twisting my words, I was very clear about what I considered childish
Like I already said this isn’t about any company but rather encouraging griefing
Yep, says it all about you fanboys 🤣
Ceo of Proton is a huge Republican fan, that might deter some people. Are you not interested in this?

I would be in the loop, but not necessarily OP. I am calling out OC to defend their suggestion with more than a simple accusation.
As a looped in person. Do you think I should stick to Proton for less hassle (migration) or is moving to Tuta for example the right move currently?

You are indeed correct, I’m not the type currently to stay up to date on news
Not this shit again.

After thinking some more this mindset is not good at all. If everyone becomes complacent due to habit and convenience that would be bad

I mean I can do it like I did with Gmail, just forward all the mails and slowly migrate everything
