Hi everyone! Since I was absolutely fucked by Skiff (thank fuck I didn’t pay for it) I’m looking for a new email provider :) I’m not sure I like how proton is transforming into a full on suit, I only need email. Any other recommendations or is proton my only choice really?

So you assume that Proton won't snitch on you whenever the NSA comes around asking for data?... And I'm sure Lavabit didn't snitch on Snowden.

I don't really care that much about any information like IPs, I care about the actual emails which are encrypted.

There is nothing that indicates that they will snitch since that would be terrible for everyone and also illegal for them to do.

But most importantly lavabit is an American company which is insane for if you care about privacy at all.

Proton also published a transparency report while Lavabit is really opaque.
