Instead of leaving Xitter, they left Mastodon. Proton's trend is not inspiring confidence and this feels like another step backwards.

Ugh, I use proton for VPN and email. Any suggestions for decent VPN at this point?

I've used Mullvad for a couple of years now and they're great.

Unless you never want to torrent, I would not choose mullvad. Torrenting requires port forwarding if you properly want to give back to the community, which mullvad doesn't support.

Does anyone know of a good alternative to simple login? They're owned my proton too and I have about 150+ aliases to move

Proton is a CIA honeypot episode 978.

I can see a company not wanting to invest resources in a social media platform without critical mass. But for a company that itself is trying to gain critical mass, moving away from a similarly situated privacy focused platform is idiotic. It signals to potential Proton users that the company cannot be trusted and it’s very hard to recover from that.

Good bye privacy.
