Edit: I made a mistake, I meant to add Mailfence instead of Fastmail, but forgot to update both the icon and text

Hey everyone, here's a follow up to my previous post, I tried to summarize all your suggestions and these are the options I have for the main Proton products I've been using.

I removed Bitwarden based on your feedback (basically they're enshittifying).

I'm not including Tuta, because I dislike their UX/UI, also they seem to not apply their LLM policy to their own devs.

I'm not including Mullvlad, because of one of the founder's donation to a far right political party in Sweden, said founder has a blog post to justify this, which links to another blog post where he claims to be a libertarian anarchist which is just another word for Ancaps which is a dealbreaker for me.

A lot of people recommended using one's own domain for email stuff, I forgot to mention I do have a custom domain, which will make migrating a lot easier indeed. Just need to update my accounts credentials.

Let me know what you think!

Tuta is going straight against their own policies on Ai, hard disagree on that 2nd chance. You might just as well do that with Proton then.

True, why not? it was clear that the people that work at proton were competent enough to raise the issue and make it a public discussion, I wouldn't throw them away that easily.

That’s absolutely true
