I've decided to leave Proton after being a user since 2017. Today, I migrated all my services to my new domain, marking the end of my time with Proton. The recent political noise and price point were no longer justifiable for me. It was a good experience while it lasted. Thanks for the fishes 🐟 🐠

How do y'all do your email and calendars? Those are the two things that aren't easy to replace from proton.

Mind, my email needs to be reliable for work reasons.

For e-mail, Tutanota, Posteo, Mailbox.org.

For calendar and contacts, self-hosted Radicale.

Tuta for mail, self hosted calendar with Radicale

I'm onboarding onto Proton now (but WITH my own domain, so I'll never have to change e-mails again (well, unless I turn out to be trans later and change my name)). For mail I've heard of Tuta, I think that's the only serious alternative.

Ah. I tried tuta, back when I decided to go for proton instead. Their security requirements were more restrictive than I was able to allow for regular email use, although I don't remember the details of what they were, anymore.

I've been using nextcloud for contacts, calendar, and files for many years

Will be easy for me to ditch proton if the bullshit escalates further
