Proton and Standard Notes are joining forces | Proton
proton.meProton and the end-to-end encrypted note-taking app Standard Notes are joining forces. We’ve long been admirers and are excited to welcome Mo and his team.
Unfortunately for now there are not usable for me.
- The 100MB storage limit feels ridiculous. ProtonMail offers 500MB basic with 1GB free upgrade, and ProtonDrive starts at 2GB up to 5GB free. It’s unclear why Standard Notes storage isn’t shared like these other Proton products.
- Basic formatting tools like bold and italics are absent on free plan. What makes it different from notes in Proton Pass?
- Jurisdictional troubles. It is not Swiss as Proton or SimpleLogin P.S: Their app looks like PWA (progressive web application) not as standalone app.

Spend $30 per year on a VPS and you own your own encrypted cloud.
How do you get those free storage upgrades? Never seen that anywhere on the website before
For proton? They’ve always offered more storage on a paid tier over free. Plus they give you additional storage every year you’re subscribed.

“100MB of note storage” is not the limit, it’s what you get for free. If you write more than 100MB of text, can afford it and want to support this kind of work, as opposed to surveillance capitalism supported and fueling alternatives I would suggest considering paying for this kind of services.
Nice, more free stuff included in my subscription
Pick one
I think of it as I bought something and they gave me something extra on the house.
Potato tomato as they say
I still prefer Obsidian.
Woah, chill Proton. I know I started using it, but you didn’t have to buy it for me. I like it tho. Very frequently updated app, lots of features.
The deal was just announced, so I think it’s unreasonable to expect shared storage on day one. It does seem a logical thing to do in time, though.
I’ve got a family plan with Proton so I’m interested to see how they implement Standard Notes into the plan.
Standardnotes already has premium sharing where you can give someone premium but that account’s file storage usage come from the original account’s plan.
