Screams incoherently I just managed to switch my 2FA, passwords, and important email accounts to Proton. Then they go pull this bullshit over time! This is quite cursed; if it gets any worse, I don’t know what I’ll do. They were not shitty and the competition is so much worse.

I was this close to switching to Proton… Dodged a bullet? I’m slowly degoogling, but I guess my new goal is to switch to a bunch of separate individual services to make it easier to switch just photos/email/calendar/drive/etc in the future when a service enshittifies.

Yeah, that would be best. I still keep certain things separate because of enshittification can strike at any time! However, I don’t think that Proton will ever get that deep into the becoming shittier train; I could be 1000% wrong about it, as I’m aggressively huffing copium right now. I’ve pretty much made Google one of my throwaway accounts that stays isolated from anything important. So I can dump that terrible company at a moment’s notice without worry.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here’s the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
