I’ll start off by saying I get where the push back is coming from. I heard some of the sub-human things the CEO has said. But I’ve been looking at the competition and I’m not seeing any instant winners.

I get anger I get having morals but constantly changing emails as your main is exhausting. the features Proton offers for me have always worked and worked great.

My question is outside of being a typical CEO AI shareholder simp, has Protons security protocols lapsed ?

What other options ? Particularly ones with generous free tiers.

I’m sure this will get downvoted to hell but I need to ask ..

You don't have to do anything. However, under the circumstances, Proton and its ecosystem are becoming less recommendable.

My personal suggestions for alternatives:

  • Proton --> Drop-in(ish) Replacement, What I Use, Future-Proof(ish)
  • Proton Mail --> Tuta Mail, Posteo, Self-hosted/pubnix email
  • Proton VPN --> IVPN, IVPN, Self-hosted VPN
  • Proton Drive --> Tuta Drive or Filen, Syncthing, Syncthing
  • Proton Pass --> Bitwarden, KeePass, KeePass
  • Proton Docs --> Nextcloud Docs, LibreOffice, ???
  • Proton Wallet --> Cake Wallet, Nothing, ???
  • Proton Auth --> Ente Auth, Aegis / OTPClient, Aegis / OTPClient / FreeOTP
  • Lumo --> Duck.ai, Nothing, Nothing or Ollama
