Imagine still carrying water for a corporation.
Imagine being so disillusioned with the world that you assume that no one can have an opinion and think critically about two opposing views without it necessarily being some corporate brand fanboy bullshit.
Here, let me help you. Proton doesn't give a fuck about you.
Yeah, was that supposed to be profound or something?
As the 1% that actually pays, I'm invested in them succeeding and not enshittifying so I don't have to take the time to move my email hosting. End of story. I have my own email domain, so I can kick them to the curb any day I like. And expect to have to one day.
Did you need to complain about it some more? Does baby need a Binky? Or did you only ever use the free thing and it didn't meet your expectations of what free things should be? Sorry your free thing wasn't spectacular enough :(
Knew it!
Knew what? That someone doesn't want the thing they pay for to get enshittified? That it's smart to make plans to not let any company control how you communicate?
Wow. Such insight.
That you were a paying customer hence your rabid defense of a garbage company. Every time I get massive pushback it is always someone that has bought into the security theatre corporate solution that they sell.
I am sorry you continue to give them money. Take care!
Rabid? Defense?
Do you even English? Where's the rabid defense, exactly? Show me the exact words.
You think this is the first time Proton has fucked up?
It is clear you are very aggressive hence the rabid part and your post was definitely in defense. Imagine someone a corporation does not give a fuck about paying them money and defending them (carrying their water)
That is how English works. Cheers!
I asked you to show evidence of my "rabid support." Which you avoided because you can't pull it off.
Either show me some objectively "rabid support" in my own comments above, or go get therapy because you're a pretty lousy internet troll, which something that only covers greater insecurity anyway.
Now it's rabid support!? Can't even keep it consistent.
You said it first.
Are you an 3B chatbot running on an old phone in a server farm in China? Even a 27B model would do better at retaining information across the conversation.
Considering you can't tell the difference between words, I would say this is probably some serious projection.
Aren't they a foundation?
No, they have a for profit company and a nonprofit entity that is a major shareholder. They operate just like a corporation with all the typical warts.
Yuck, they really make it seem like they are just a non profit.
They are definitely gross, but so is every corporation. The real lesson is stop giving companies money.
