I am having problems reaching Tuta through Mull on my Android (Mull 120.0.0, downloaded from f-Droid). Checking, I saw that Fennec is version 120.1.0.
Just in general, does any of you peeps here have any takes on Mull vs Fennec when it comes to privacy? I have assumed both are on par and also comparable to LibreWolf on PC.
tuta has an open source email app, have you tried it?
Not yet. I was trying to go with the browser first, before “IYAP” 😉 (“Install Yet Another App”) But I am likely to end up there.
Idk if you saw my other comment, but there is good reason to consider installing an app instead of using a website.

I think it’s worth asking alongside three other responses that actually fit the shape of the question. Why not the app?
Right now, there’s no way to guarantee website integrity. Tuta could, in theory, push a malicious version of their website to a single person. A version that grabs your password and sends it back to Tuta. Not only would this be hard to guard against, it would be hard for researchers to identify.
Meanwhile, an app is much harder to sneak malicious code into, especially if it’s open source. And releasing a malicious app for a single user is almost entirely out of the question.
Especially if it’s pushed through fdroid, The code would be recorded, so somebody would see they put a special flag just for your phone.
