    They've become very political, siding with the far right, actively ignoring community concerns (see the recent petition deletions) and still, while they E2EE your email contents, they do not encrypt headers and a lot of other metadata. It's been long a concern among the funny hat communities that they are a possible honeypot as well.

    No email provider encrypts headers nor metadata but Tuta. And even Tuta does not encrypt mail addresses nor date of message sent or received - as these are necessary to deliver a mail at all.

    To avoid metadata use e.g. Signal instead of e-mail.

    You're really going to recommend Gmail over Proton? Let's keep it sane here...

    “As an alternative to Gmail” is the start of the whole thing, it’s assumed they’re moving away from Gmail

    Outlook is better than Proton?
