Protonmail.uservoice.com is supposedly "The Voice of the Proton Community". Well last week I was tracking a post that was rising rapidly to the top-most voted in the "general ideas" category. And this morning when I went to check if it was at the top yet, it's just gone without a trace. No sign that it was ever there.

I had breifly heard that the CEO was pro-Trump when Trump was re-elected, so I had cancelled then and than searched out Canadian hosts that do not look through my mail. I was first with HostHero, because I could move my blog onto there servers they however charge an arm and a leg for unlimited emails with no wildcard option. I got tired of their angry support people when I was having issues so I went looking for a better solution and found easyDNS, who now hosts my domain, a VPS, and an email with a wildcard option.

Tuta is good too.

Nah, no encrypted email support outside tuta, so it's close to worthless

Oh? It says it's encrypted, what is encrypted email support outside of tuta may I ask?

They do have paid versions so idk.
