Hey @protonprivacy it would be nice if you could update your website. Given that both of us fight for #privacy and #opensource, we must not use the same marketing tactics like Big Techs do.

Screenshot from Proton website, highlighted text: All Proton apps are open source

Question to Lumo with a more a honest answer:
Are all Proton apps open source? Please answer in one sentence.
Not all Proton apps are open source—while many core services like Proton Mail and Proton VPN have open-source components, some Proton applications remain proprietary.

@Tutanota seriously? Is some AI chat your only source? Don't get me wrong, if this is true it's worth calling it out but you should put a little more effort in it.

    @zockbursche It's not, Proton Calendar hasn't been updated since 2021 on GitHub: github.com/ProtonMail/proton-c

    @Tutanota @zockbursche even their audit report for calendar is from 2021. But from what I found online, all their web based code was moved to github.com/ProtonMail/WebClien Also, proton said in a reddit post 3 years ago, that calender is not open source. reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/commen2 years ago, they said this reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/commen This is not expected from proton. It appears, that may have caught the big tech virus. Their revenue has grown a lot, they are launching new products fast.. sigh

    @Tutanota @zockbursche You really need to learn how to use a search engine: github.com/ProtonMail/WebClien"This project is a monorepo hosting the Proton web clients. It includes the web applications, their dependencies & shared modules as well as all tooling surrounding development of the web clients (as well as some additional miscellaneous things)."And then, three clicks later: github.com/ProtonMail/WebClienLast commit was 8 hours ago.

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy I should really start running away from them. Ahhhh...I am still in the Proton bubble. :blobcatsad: I target to be free of their services by end of 2025. I am subscribed until Dec. 2025.

    @Tutanota Tuta, you should know that Proton left Mastodon. You should write them via Reddit. As far as I know, Reddit is also your main communication/Support channel. @protonprivacy

  • @Tutanota hahahaha funny how you took a nag at them with their own chwatbot. quite hilarious

    @Tutanota Unfortunately #Proton chose to leave Mastodon since they more pushback here than on other platforms whenever they stepped outside of the image they portrayed. Thus they sadly won't see your apt post. (I'm still a Proton Visionary customer though, but even as such they didn't want to admit to why they left the Fediverse)@protonprivacy

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy why don't you create some automatism, how to migrate from proton to you? I sure can do a lot of things manually, but something which supports me would be beneficial because I'm not a techie.

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy proton killed off their fedi account ages ago, after everyone here (justifiably) got mad about the CEO saying some REALLY problematic right wing stuff. I would stay away from their stuff if I were you

    @GroupNebula563 @Tutanota @protonprivacy Would you spare a moment to elaborate? I’ve been aware of the case of him expressing some naive at least (interpreting them in the best faith possible) views about Republicans tackling the big tech, but I’ve been wondering whether he had any more Freudian slips that would confirm the suspicions.

    @Tutanota looks like Proton left Mastodon months ago…👎🏽 doubt they’ll see your message but thanks for pointing this out! 👍🏽

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy And Tutanota is talking about bullshit marketing? 😂Take a look in the mirror first and check what you're posting on social media.

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy Seriously Tuta, you should know that LLMs hallucinate... 😩

    Screenshot of a Proton Lumo chat where I asked "Are all Proton client apps open-source?". Lumo answered by stating that not all Proton client apps are open-source, in particular the iOS mobile apps. I then told Lumo that I could find all the source codes of all the iOS Proton mobile applications on GitHub, and I even included the links of the GitHub repositories. Lumo concluded that it made a mistake and that "This openness aligns with Proton’s commitment to transparency and privacy‑first development.".

    @Tutanota @protonprivacy I think Google, Apple and all others believe in the power of open source as well and particularly companies like Microsoft or Amazon who profit from open source hugely.To believe in the power of open source does not mean that you do open source.

  • @Tutanota @protonprivacy Honestly, you're winning me over more and more :blobcatnerd: I use Proton Mail right now, but seeing how open and active you are - talking with people on the fediverse and replying to comments - really means a lot. Especially since Proton left Mastodon a few months ago :mastodon:Your strong support for the #FightChatControl campaign and your clear choice to stand up for privacy rights - instead of giving up and leaving the market if the law goes through - says a lot 🔐 I've always liked tools that focus on doing one thing well, not big all-in-one ecosystems, and it looks like your way fits me much better.Thanks for staying true to your values 🙌 I really hope that never changes.
