I still don't know how to feel about Proton, even with an early (and continued) email presence there. Reddit? I see this post because of lemmy.world and fedia.

The only thing Proton has going for it that Tuta does not is the .onion site and even that constantly leaks to clearweb so fuck'em.
I did weeks of work migrating every password and email address to proton. Sucks the stances they are taking but now I’m kinda stuck, and it’s still better than Google.
Im sure there are tools/scripts for migrating easily. Proton is a sinking ship, anyone who denies it is just lying to themselves at this point.
That’s impossible, the email aliases are under their domain. You’d have to change all your accounts. I’m not doing that again. Hopefully they just change their tune.

Well, read comments under their latest posts on Mastodon. Solid shitstorm of 9 Beaufort since more than a month.
Proton doing shady proton things again. Who would have guessed that.
If they aren't getting much traction somewhere, but are spending outsized resources there, it makes sense to redirect the manhours elsewhere.
Why not on Nostr? No any freaked admin, etc
I think the main problem is they don’t want to maintain multiple accounts
also nobody really cares about nostr
