simpleX and a more anti-compliance mail company like Tuta mail are even better options! Don't get comfortable halfway down the path!

Dude just let someone be proud of switching away from invasive spyware for fuck's sake. Also, SimpleX isn't inherently better than Signal and suffers way worse from the network effect. Signal has consistently shown through subpoenas that it has functionally nothing on you. They aren't "halfway down the path"; Signal is fantastic.

Isn’t the proton mail guy a fascist

[–] ex_06@slrpnk.net 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Fascism is when selling his own business to a foundation to ensure that it is more immune to capitalism?

Nah, I’d say no. He said shit but happens to everyone.

Here is the full board btw https://proton.me/foundation

He's a Trump fan

[–] ex_06@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The situation in the US makes pretty clear what fascism is and who Trump fans are

2 tweets in which he said that the republicans could help small tech are definitely not enough to be called either (fascist or Trump fan) imho

But it’s not a hill I’d die on. Still a foundation, still not easily sold to a random rich guy, still other members on the board and so on. Opinions are opinions but facts are here to stay and I can trust that organization still much more than others even if one person of the board went crazy. Organizations over single people ftw

Hard disagree. His tweets were slobbering. Not going to get into it here, it's just the case. Proton is dead. Fucker can have his MAGAt user base.

We can agree to disagree for the tweets but I’m not sure that I agree on the part about throwing a good organization built on solid principles because of one person tbh. Yes he is not a random employee but on the foundation board there are also people like Tim Berners Lee…
