Yeah, tuta is actually on fdroid (should be the minimum bar for open source software from a company like proton) and has an efficient notification service that doesn’t depend on google services at all
Is there any evidence of them being a honeypot? It sounds like that claim was made by someone under trial who might be trying to take the heat off themselves
I think they’re trustworthy, but not the best in all those categories - I think tuta is better for mail (no dependence on google services), mullvad is better for vpn (linux app actually works with wireguard, and doesn’t have a hard dependence on networkmanager), and keepassxc + syncthing is better for passwords, although to be fair I haven’t tried proton pass
Yep, I switched because I was moving away from the proton ecosystem lol. Their poor google-free android support for mail, and awful linux vpn support (they have a hard dependency on networkmanager, but I don’t use NM, I use iwd) plus no ipv6 pushed me away
Oh interesting, well once actual evidence comes out maybe I’ll switch back, but like they mention in the article, the client, which does the encrypting is open source, so if there is a backdoor hopefully it’s found soon
Probably never. Tuta is a better choice for de-googled phones, they don’t depend on google play services for notifications and their notification implimentation uses negligible battery
The epistemic status of that person saying it vs me is not all that different, neither of us have evidence to present
