Looking to leave GMAIL and am currently testing Proton for a $1 a month. So far it’s pretty good and the issue I have is not with Proton, but with who I’m sending messages to. If I send an email to a gmail account my information is still sitting on a Google server. So is Proton worth it? Is something like Fastmail just as good over all due to how email works? With Fastmail I can get email for my whole family for $14 a month. I won’t have the VPN, ProtonPASS and other Proton apps, but are they worth the $12 a month for one person?


I think its worth it. And even if there are people on google, the more people join privacy-friendly providers the less the issue happens. After I joined proton half of my family or friends joined too. Its a long game but worth it. Also I prefer Proton over tuta because tuta developed their own encryption while Proton uses PGP which is more universal.
