As much as I like using Proton Mail and VPN, their current offerings have grown exponentially in size.
I would highly recommend anyone here to not put all their eggs in one basket. Proton can and has in the past disabled user accounts for no reason. This means that you will lose access to everything you use with them.
Only use Mail or VPN and use other services for other needs.
- Mail -> Tutanota
- Calendar -> Tutanota
- Drive -> Just make a NAS. I don't trust any provider with file storage.
- VPN -> Mullvad
- Pass -> Bitwarden or Keepass
- Wallet -> Don't buy crypto
- Docs -> ~~OpenOffice~~ LibreOffice
- Sheets -> ~~OpenOffice~~ LibreOffice
- Authenticator -> Aegis or Ente Auth
- Meet -> This is fine.
- AI -> Run something locally
Of course it’s like this, proton is a competitor to the google and apple cloud ecosystems.
