I'm sorry, WHAT??? I use Proton!!! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DESTROY THEM, NOT JOIN THEM!
I truly hope we're being overly dramatic here because Proton has been a good service for me. I do not feel like moving everything to another service. At least I have my own domains, though.
I believe they stopped being the good guys a while ago.
Yeah, Tuta are the good guys now.
For you know 5 or so years then also go to shit.
Like why can't a company just decide to stay the good guys for like any real amount of time ;-;

Proton have been cunts for a long time my friend...
I've had my Proton for not even one year, & turns out they're evil, same with Bluesky, I'll move away, sometime, whenever I get the morale, it's annoying, having to delete more old accounts, finding more even obscurer alternatives, the moving process as a whole is daunting, but I'll keep going, because if I stop, how will I expect tomorrow to be different from today if I can't bother to make change myself?
Keep fighting the good fight, my friend.
I host my own email on my own domain, and I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.
Alas, when a company gets big it gets evil.
I'm prepared this time around, I use Protonmail with a custom domain, I'm ready to easily switch.
For the other stuff (Drive, Docs, Sheets, ...) , I'm selfhosting.
Let me know how this goes..
I am also using my own custom domain, but I’m handling the aliases via simple login which I believe is also a product of proton.
Not sure how one migrates that layer as well..
Only manually.
I didn't use that feature mainly to avoid this problem.
I used an email for each service (xyz-amazon@mydomain, xyz-ebay@mydomain,... Etc) and set up catch-all email for them. I was using the xyz+Amazon trick before, but some services don't allow it, so I switched do dashes.
Just gotta migrate it manually, I suppose.
