Ditches fediverse but still use Xitter?
On top of the trump apointee praise?
Sus 👀
That’s not sus, that’s what anyone ought to expect him to do, because it aligns with his bourgeois interests. Why would he stay on a non-corporate, federated social media platform when he and his bourgeois peers can’t control the narrative?
I’m seriously starting to consider moving from proton to Fastmail. My renewal is coming up in May.
I switched after the CEO came out supporting Trumps nomination and the republicans being the party of the small guy
There’s also Migadu which I currently use. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that providers like Proton and Tuta have with their E2EE but they don’t use any shady marketing or track you. Requires a custom domain though.
I never heard of them, I’ll check them out. Thanks!
Is Fastmail US based?
That’s in line with being from Switzerland. Act cool, but be sure to stick with the richer people and do their interest. Never used Proton (I use Tuta instead) for that reason only. You are free to call me racist.
I have Proton email and will ditch it soon.
Of all the fuckin places to move to they chose reddit 😭
Because they can control the dialog on reddit
Add one more to the tally. Did the offer a reason?
Probably because Andy Yen (CEO) was rightfully called out on Mastodon for saying that Republicans stand with the “little guy”

I wonder if the “limited resources” are due to them potentially losing a whole load of customers recently.
You know, if their tech truly is as open-source as they market, then they’ve still contributed hugely to the ecosystem. If it turns out it’s not actually operationally open-source, then this will be remembered in a hugely negative light.
Edit: I did just see their post about being impacted by the US spending cuts. I can’t imagine Proton would be super happy about that administration at the moment. But then again, who knows these days.
Aww, is someone booty blasted they can’t control the dialog no more?
Man, I don’t want to ditch Proton, it’s the most competitive alternative to gmail Europe has afaik. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good, better to have a Trump supporting European company than a Trump supporting American company…
So glad I moved away from Proton a few weeks ago. They seem to be going downhill.
I switched to StartMail, I’m officially done with ProtonMail. Are you even kidding me, how just how…
I’m sad too. But I think it’s quite logical given people that use Mastodon probably already know or heard of proton. Marketing is particularly effective for people that don’t know of them (at least while they are small)
I’ve never used Proton. I use Njalla
Isn’t Njalla a registrar?
They’re a lot of things.
