Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I don't trust Proton much, either. The more a company talks about how secure and private they are the more I think they're a honey pot, but maybe I'm paranoid. But I trust them more than I trust Google.

Not sure what you mean by a secret tip other than don't use Proton Pass's suggested email when it asks you if you want to create an alias when signing up for something. It just uses the domain name of the site minus the TLD as the address name. I make an alias using a random word. You can put a note with each alias that says what it goes with.

For a trustworthy mail hoster with unlimited addresses, not in danger of enshitification.

I'd say look at where the money comes from, and especially who the majority stakeholders are. If it's a publicly traded company, steer clear. Proton is majority owned by a nonprofit, so there aren't stockholders to maximize value for.

I'm not naive about Proton but you could do a whole lot worse than them.

In a perfect world it would be easy to self host email. It's easy enough to set up a bare SMTP server but that won't work outside of a lab.
