??? I already answered that 7 comments ago. You asked me for my opinions and I gave them, I'm so confused.

You answered that you didn't know of a better alternative, but you also think people should move, which doesn't make sense.

For the record, nowhere in this conversation did I say that I think people should move. You're putting words in my mouth. I've only ever spoken about myself and my own plans.

That clarified, I do think people should not support a company with leadership like Proton's.

You do not need a perfect or "better" (subjective) alternative to leave Proton. If you are not willing to accept an inconvenience for a moral stance, then it is no moral stance at all.

Just because I do not personally yet know what I will be switching to does not at all undermine my position. I do not think you are carrying on this conversation in good faith, so I'm going to end it here.

Yeah you could have just shut up ages ago, nothing lost but a lot of babbel.
