MODERATORS
 

The contempt Proton is showing for their users is astounding. They not only think people will fall for this transparent act of damage control, but they also have the gall to shift blame onto the users.

Go read the comments. Obvious bots are posting praise and many critical comments are being deleted by the moderators.

Oh no. I have been dragging my feet on leaving Proton. This means I need to make it a priority before they fuck things up irreparably.

i signed on posteo because i had to pay and the sunk costs hopefully help me switch. Also their service/website looks almost exactly like 10 years ago so im hopeful that its a safe option for mail that websites accept

I will look at that one. Tuta and Mailbox.org are my current top picks.

Posteo doesn't do custom domains so mailbox.org still has my #1 so far followed by fastmail for cost reasons
