    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 am Swiss myself and I feel like things are changing since Trumps second term, at least my friends seek closer ties to Europe now.

      Proton gives me a bad feeling in the stomach, I would encourage people to not trust it. The guy is either a big Trump fan or most of his customers are from that base. The best option for e-mail is selfhost + pgp, the second best option are the various small companies offering email all across Europe.

        Does Europe in your first sentence mean the EU or Europe in general, maybe even including Russia?

          Russia

          lol Russia is not particularly popular here right now, we are even on their list of “unfriendly countries” if you didn’t know.

      Tuta isnt really a replacement for proton. They dont even support PGP encryption, which is kinda the whole point of proton.
