So here’s the thing. My entire life is on Proton: email, calendar, documents, VPN, all my passwords, all my ID, all my important data.
My annual subscription is up at the end of January.
If they don’t oust Andy Yen by then, I’m out. The question is where?
Infomaniak seems to offer most of what Proton does but they also use AI.
What other options are there? I’m seeing people suggesting email alternatives. But I need a whole lot more than that.
Currently I use:
Tuta and Murena for email
NextCloud for cloud and calendar
Privamatic and Tor VPN for hardening and VPN
NextCloud for Passwords
As an FYI Murena actually uses NextCloud, which enable you to have all your documents, passwords, email, photos, calendar in one place and accessible via NextCloud apps and with a free tier available as well.
I am aware that they are looking into the feasibility of using LLM for code development, but as of now all code is written by humans.
I am awaiting am answer from them for confirmation on their plans. If they go full sloptastic crap like Proton and others, I will ditch them.
@iscarlosmolero @alexadeswift No worries, Tuta is not out of the game, and we are engaging here to better understand what's required of us. Thanks for sharing your concerns!
There will be something left:
Snail Mail and Dumb Phones. I already have one of the latter at home. It can make voice calls. It can receive voice calls. It can ring a bell when somebody calls me and that is IT.
But I will never again engage with AI as it has left me feeling physically sick and badly depressed. I hope I do not have to increase medication to overcome this.

It is not possible to enshittify the unenshitifiable with AI dross and slop!
