Been hearing some sketchy things about the ethics going on at #protonmail and after I just finished my gmail transition. For those in a #foss #opensource world, what are you using for email and cloud?

@zahntron@mastodon.social I think proton is still pretty solid as far as a privacy focused email provider. That being said, I don't like their recent partnership of cape mobile, which also partners with EFF, amongst other issues. Email, as a communication method, is fairly terrible as a privacy based medium. I've yet to see examples of proton reading private emails; just minor metadata under court order. Getting off Gmail was your best move. @Tutanota@mastodon.social might be a good option for you if you're wary of proton.
