"End-to-end encrypted email, hosted in Germany, with 10 GB free forever and no ads, scanning, or AI ever."

Is this another provider that seemingly promises a good private email alternative before enshittifying down the line a la Proton, or is this legit like Mailbox or Tuta?

I tried it out for a month. I just had unimportant things going there. It seemed alright but, I don't code or anything so I can't speak to how well all that worked out. I will say that my account did get deleted for inactivity so that's a thing to be aware of. I know some people were critical at one point of Tuta for that.

Considering how many times the word "forever" is used on their landing page? I think this is very important to note. That's borderline false advertising.

It may have changed. I think I used it right after it first launched.
