In the latest episode of "they will always sell you out" - they sold you out! Who would've thought.

Hoping for a good alternative client to appear, the writing is on the wall. Vaultwarden can't exist without "leeching" off of Bitwarden.

Proton Mail Faces Backlash Over Claims of Political Neutrality Amid CEO’s Praise for Republican Party

A great Medium article on the topic that analyzes the entire situation: (coming to the conclusion that no, Proton does not really seem to be in favor of Trump/MAGA at all given their actual actions, and how the original statement was misinterpreted)

I disagree. The article is just someone's opinion. As a previous customer, there is a smell to these things. First, it's the complimemts to the fascist. Then, the pivot to AI. There is virtually little support on Linux. Next will be the policy changes. I jumped off ship. The article reads like an AI piece. May not be, but the author seems sketch, only one post. I see the nuance, I'm just not convinced.
