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

Tuta uses standard algorithms also being used by PGP (AES and RSA or ECC) for encrypting the entire mailbox. In addition, Tuta Mail already uses post-quantum cryptography (Kyber) for quantum safe accounts, which is still a work in progress for PGP. Furthermore, Tuta does not use an implementation of PGP itself because PGP lacks important requirements that we have for Tuta

Read the last sentence. They dont use PGP for emails.

Find me how you can send PGP emails to someone off tuta. You can't. They disabled it.

With proton its one click.
