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

If you must:

  • Proton Mail/Calendar ➡️ Posteo, Tutanota, Mailbox.org
  • Proton Drive ➡️ Tresorit, Nextcloud, Filen, Syncthing, MEGA
  • Proton Pass ➡️ KeePass
  • Proton VPN ➡️ Mullvad VPN, IVPN, Windscribe
  • Proton Wallet ➡️ Cake Wallet, Electrum

Some of these don't have first-party mobile or desktop clients, so here are some apps to use them with:

  • Posteo & Mailbox.org - Thunderbird (desktop, Android), FairEmail (Android), Evolution (Unix-like), Geary (Unix-like), Claws Mail (desktop), Fossify Calendar + DAVx^5^ (Android)
  • KeePass: KeePassXC (desktop), KeePassDX (Android), KeePassium (iOS)
