Proton or Tuta? (lemmy.zip)

So, I've been de-googling, and moved my email and calendar to Proton, and I've been using their VPN for a while as well. I really like it, and it works extremely well for me.

But I am slightly annoyed by Proton's choice to stop posting to Mastodon, and their CEO's Trump comments. And I do like Tuta's support for the Fediverse, and their better open-source implementation. But I'm wondering if it's worth it to bother switching again. I tried making a ones month payment to try out both, and my card doesn't want to pay for Tuta (It's finicky about stuff outside the US).

So would it be better to just stick with Proton? Or try to manage to go over to Tuta?

I went for Tuta and never regretted it. First as a free user, later I decided to subscribe to the old premium plan, where I pay 12$/year, mainly because I wanted to use a custom domain.

I also made a free Proton Mail about a year ago as a secondary mail account but I rarely use it. They are just way too pushy when trying to sell me their premium plans.
