    I’m a proton unlimited subscriber. Can’t recommend these guys enough. Customer support is always excellent, very capable guys no matter if you’re on Android or Arch Linux, these guys know their shit. They have a black Friday sale every year but for protonvpn, protonmail, simplelogin premium, 500gb storage. Everything e2ee, I mean, what can I say but they’re an amazing company.

      I use Proton as well. Very happy with it.

      I’ll second this one. I love Proton. It’s the only free service, other than the late Apollo, that I’ve ever decided to pay to upgrade just because I love it so much. It also happens to be well worth paying for imo.

      As with any service, unless you build and host it all yourself, you’re ultimately trusting some one else with your data. However, Proton are generally very transparent and, as you say, seem to really know their shit. For those reasons I choose to trust their services.

      I hear a lot of criticism about them pretending to be private and not actually protecting user’s data

      It really saddens me they changed their domain to proton.me it looks so wildly unprofessional and spammy while protonmail.com looked professional and even futuristic/scientific. Such a bizarre decision especially since everything else they do is so great

        So I was curious and I just checked their sign up process. You can choose between @proton.me and @protonmail.com.

          Yeah but if you go to protonmail.com it redirects you to proton.me and they also have the @proton.me domains be the default on sign up which means like 90% of users will be making proton.me email addresses

          Its a small issue but it really irks me because otherwise its a great service/company with really well designed apps and websites. I just feel they diminished their brand so much with this. What company ever uses a .me domain? Especially when they have a really nice .com

          Heres hoping the malaysian car (insurance?) company changes their name and decides to sell the proton.com domain to them lol
