Mostly out of curiosity, but also somewhat related to Proton’s recent political involvement, I’m curious about alternatives to using their services, open to suggestions for:

  • Proton Mail: anything that can support custom domain, email aliases, and email scheduling?
  • Proton Drive: not the most important, but interested in privacy first, encrypted hosting services
  • Proton Pass: anything I should take a look at besides Bitwarden and Keepass?
  • Proton VPN: that one’s the hardest, it was really good, I think Mullvlad is the one most often recommended?
  • Proton Calendar: didn’t really care about that one, but it was nice that it connected to Mail

My Unlimited plan renewed in December so I’ll probably keep it for a year, it was nice having only one subsctiption to keep in mind, but I’m thinking of exploring other options

    good track record, anon accounts+payments, no logs, swedish privacy laws and 3rd party security audits. mullvad was also chosen as the backend of Mozilla’s vpn

      Hmmm, I guess, besides the the proton ceo’s statements, how does that compare to proton VPN?

        haven’t used proton vpn so can’t compare directly. i would assume similar performance wise.

        on mullvad side you get apps to easily change locations on pretty much all platforms but also option for downloading openvpn and wireguard configs directly. only complaint I’ve had is you can only configure 5 devices at a time even if they’re not using them at the same time which kind of sucks.
