Proton is seeming sketchier lately. What alternatives do y'all have in your back pocket? Especially for email, but really any part of the suite.

I tried the different address for every service thing and found it way too much hassle. I think at the very least having only one you tell the actual humans in your life is important.

    It normally is a lot of hassle. I tried to make it very easy with Port87.

    I mostly mean the human side of it. Even without something like that the alias part was fine, it was not remembering which one I used when asked in person. Or family members being unable to remember my email because the answer wasn't the same one time.

    I understand why the idea is appealing, I'm just putting it out there for anyone else reading that the human element is a cost I hadn't considered when I started. Personally I don't have enough of a spam problem to warrant committing to it.
