Wait, what's wrong with Proton Mail?

It's proprietary.

Privacy wise? Probably nothing. The company engages in shitty behavior, though, and will try to upsell you even if you're a paying costumer. I switched to Tuta because of that, and then Tuta started doing all the same bs...

I don't think OP was trying to say Proton Mail is bad or insecure. Rather the opposite.

It was a terrible sub for years much before the apicalypse. It was full of apple fanboys who believed every marketing bullshit.

Oh I remember r/privacy, this comment is spot on. You expect something like the Linux communities where it is okay what ever you prefer. But privacy-nerds sometimes goes the spying government/tech-firms rabbit-hole to deep.

I ditched reddit, and what's being described in this thread is largely part if why I left. I won't go back.
