"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?

FULL DISCLOSURE: I am one of the founders of Secria Mail.

no responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities

I was ready to assume the entire post was BS too.

Until I saw the AsterMail team reply and verify they were correct.

I'm not arguing it's bullshit, I'm saying there's a very specific way vulnerabilities are supposed to be disclosed to protect the public and someone who would be VERY familiar with the practice failed to do so

Ah, understood. Thanks for clarifying (I was worried I hadn't been specific enough myself, since the thread is long)
