More analysis from @wiredfire:

It’s nothing to do with [difficulties in using multiple platforms]. It’s to do with the massive backlash they got on Fedi for their CEO being all Trumpy and somewhat horrible right wing. So they’ve run away because they were made to feel unwelcome on account of us not letting their BS fly.

Good thing it's encrypted then.

So is Proton. And Proton is in a country where it's illegal to give data to the US government.

They don't encrypt as many parts of emails as Tuta does, tho.

A point that's largely moot, considering all of nothing is still nothing, which is what the US gets from Proton, while Germany will hand over whatever little information Tuta has when asked nicely.

I fully expect that all countries will become like this.
