    I didn’t realize that. What’re the best Proton alternatives?

      Personally I’ve been using Tutanota and bitwarden happily. I guess it kinda depends on what you’re looking for alternatives to, I don’t know if anyone else offers as comprehensive of a complete suite of stuff

        Convenience shouldn’t be prioritized over distribution of services one uses. Single point of failure and all that jazz.

        • Tuta
        • KeePass XC
        • SyncThing
        • VeraCrypt
        • pCloud + Cryptomator
        • Mullvad VPN
        • Librewolf
        • IronFox
        • openSuse Tumbleweed

          Those recommendations would probably be more useful to the person who was asking for recs, though it’s worth pointing out your solutions to certain things aren’t really 1 to 1 alternatives and may not be suitable for someone who’s looking for services akin to proton

          I won’t touch anything microsoft with a long pole, so no bitwarden

          Just use KeePassXc/Dx as you were meant to

            Bitwarden is associated with Microsoft…?

            Edit: I wasn’t able to find anything suggesting they’re connected, I’d love to know what you mean… I don’t keep up with stuff super closely

                Ah, gotcha. Yeah I can’t say that really bothers me too much… 😅

                I’m not sure there are really any big names in that space that don’t suck anyway. Like the other two I’m familiar with are google and Amazon, and they’re hardly saints.

                A “roll your own” solution with keepass and something to sync might sidestep that problem but is hardly a drop in replacement that appeals to all the same users

                  Not that I can see. I assume it’s just an aversion to anything Microsoft profits off of?

            Did you misread Bitlocker? Or was Bitwarden bought my Microsoft? If the latter, i can’t find a source.
