I know the CEO dug himself a pretty deep hole recently.

I had been meaning to switch all the services I currently use over to proton - but his remarks gave me pause.

Is it still worth considering?

    FWIW, tuta offers email, calendar and contacts. That’s a good part of it sorted out.

    For storage, if you’re not up for self hosting Seafile or Nextcloud, look at https://filen.io/

    Or, check out https://disroot.org/en which has email, storage, calendar and contacts.

    AFAIK none of the above have office suites like you might expect coming from Google or Microsoft, but in my experience installing LibreOffice on your local machine solves that. Not everything needs to run in a browser.

      It seems murena has all in looking for with the exception of supporting custom domain names (unless you self host). The workspace aspect is important to me as I do a lot of collaborative work that is much easier with shared access to a spreadsheet.

        Sure, if at this point you’re still comfortable trusting the same entity with all your cloud services as well as your phone OS (which seems to just be a hardened LineageOS) — go right ahead.

          For me personally this is the selling point, as I can fund their (open source) work rather than sending money to some company that does not contribute to open source. And since everything they offer is based on FOSS, migrating to another provider is easier than for closed source competition.

          That said, I get your point. It is a corporation, and it is putting several eggs on one basket.
