Well Fuck that guy. I have a free Protonmail account. I already contacted their support and quoted back Mr. Yen's AI standpoint and my horror at the disrespect for his employees he showed, as the reasons why I'll be closing my account today.

"Moving fast" and accepting "AI"-generated code without careful audits by humans is not compatible with security. Period. What an asshat. I will wait with full-on Schadenfreude the headlines in a few months: 'ProtonMail and apps hacked, thousands of accounts exposed!'. Wait and see.

I’ve said this in a post from the previous 404 article but it’s becoming such a pain in the ass to not support assholes or fascists. Guess I’m moving again. Obscura looks interesting. Maybe vaultwarden for passwords? Mail is an entirely other problem

Been satisfied with mailbox.org as my email provider for over a year now, switched to it from Proton.

Email: Tuta
Drive: NextCloud
VPN: Mullvad
Password manager: KeePass

goddamn it… just as I finally move my family…

self host or bust I guess

Dammit

Wow. I guess that's it then. Everything enshittifies eventually. I'm cancelling Proton.

I recently downgraded from proton unlimited to mail plus. I think I’ll keep my email there for now, but I’m going to move to Obscura for VPN. They’ve got a new security model which looks really intriguing and is different than other providers. No idea if they’re any good, but on its face looks better than proton.

For email, I cannot recommend Port87 highly enough. Mostly because I wrote it, but also because it’s legitimately awesome. I used to absolutely hate email. Now I’m literally the “email guy” among my friend group.

I have a hard stance against the use of AI at all in Port87. No AI features, no AI training, and no AI in development.

Ugh. Again? Really?

Welp, I'm thinking:

Vaultwarden for passwords and TOTP?

Aegis for TOTP if not vaultwarden

Recommendations for email? I use FairEmail if I need to access my old emails.

VPN? Ideally one that I can use on Graphene as well as OpenVPN for router. I've heard AirVPN maybe?

Storage? I just recently setup a backup on my homelab to export to Proton Drive via proton-CLI to have an offsite backup.

Email: posteo.com, Storage: peergos.net, VPN: windscribe, Passwords: KeePassXC

What on Earth does "build" mean? It's a website that offers email. It's done, what's left to do?

This is why I switched to tuta and self hosting. Unfortunately I don't have access to my router so I host everything on the tor network.

Tuta for email, nextcloud (self-hosted) for drive, I'm currently using orbot for VPN, on my laptop I use a tor proxy for http connections. My password manager is keepass and its located on my nextcloud server
