Looking to leave GMAIL and am currently testing Proton for a $1 a month. So far it’s pretty good and the issue I have is not with Proton, but with who I’m sending messages to. If I send an email to a gmail account my information is still sitting on a Google server. So is Proton worth it? Is something like Fastmail just as good over all due to how email works? With Fastmail I can get email for my whole family for $14 a month. I won’t have the VPN, ProtonPASS and other Proton apps, but are they worth the $12 a month for one person?


I’m not falling for the old smol bean give me donations trick from large nonprofits supported by shit like the Open Technology Fund of the OSS. I have actual developers to support, after the genocide most of the countries they live in are committing is dealt with (https://lifeline4gaza.com/). I have more local providers but they don’t always play nice abroad.
