If you’re still using Proton mail:

@jago why did you think you need more than an IMAP&SMTP server with your own domain? @slothrop

[roboro@mastodon.social]

@slothrop totally depressed by this. It has been a challenge to migrate all of my mail and friends and family on my domain off of Google's crap infrastructure. Have struggled with some shortcomings in Proton - their alias handling etc is terrible - but I am really upset to hear about fascist leanings etc. I just don't know how to up and migrate a whole bunch of people after a few months of getting people used to the shift.
Why is the world so full of horrible people?

@slothrop Anyone can sign up to be an affiliate as part of their partners program. Seems more plausible than a swiss email company taking the time to sponsor a far right youtuber? https://proton.me/partners/affiliates

@slothrop

Entièrement raison, c'est une farce.

@tempusfelix @slothrop Ethics/sustainability/privacy are some of the reasons I chose Runbox:

@uriel What do you mean by "advertisement on ads"?

[drangnon@hachyderm.io]

@slothrop well, despite comments to @benroyce about opsec...

so... I started using Proton just to move storage to the EU.

in that sense, for email, it's behind my own domain and could just be migrated (i.e. what you said doesn't sound complicated at all, other than DMARC issues).

but the other thing I use them for is photos, end2end encrypted, that then don't have to be also stored on my phone. migrating that would be more challenging. I looked for alternatives for a couple years, before establishing a Proton account.

@theeclecticdyslexic @slothrop @nileane i do not think they will change their stance as their c?o/founder already supported trump and spewed other hyper capitalist right ideology shit himself.

and given that history i would still move anyways no matter what capitalsit ass saving response you get.

and i think you can just link to the french wikipedia. as proton embraced all this AI bullshit they will be able to translate (badly) themselves.

@Brett_E_Carlock @slothrop @Tutanota @drsbaitso @StrangeNoises @alice @fastmail I’ve created a mailbox.org account early last month (shortly before google went all google) and am slowly moving things over there. Haven’t encountered any evil yet. Only hiccups were that some things weren’t properly localized, like one confirmation link mail was in German, that was pretty self explanatory tho

[shemjm@social.vivaldi.net]

@slothrop never heard of that YouTuber. What makes him far right/fascist?

[glowl@chaos.social]

@Infoseepage @gatogatogato @slothrop or mailbox.org or posteo

[albi@furry.engineer]

@Arthfach @tempusfelix @slothrop it's cool, but please start charging for what actually causes costs rather than just alias/mailbox amount. I would much rather hit a rate limit than choose which alias im ok with being leaked and spammed.

@slothrop

migrating to tuta.com from proton was rather painless, even with custom domains. took a couple of hours including reading some light documentation. On the Tuta side, most of it guides you through everything you need to do so no real reason to even read the docs it turned out.

@nando161 I'm on disroot as I could never find someone to invite me to riseup : can I please get an invite?

[s_d_brath@mastodon.social]

@slothrop yeah, but at least they are european fascists and not those damn foreign ones.

[slothrop@chaos.social]

@s_d_brath not like we have to rely on imports for our fascism here in Europe

@mzungu porkbun is what I keep seeing recommended for those moving away from Namecheap this weekend.

You might find more info in the talk of Namecheap's role in taking down #Neocities yesterday for no sensible reason.

What I picked up regarding porkbun from comments and Wikipedia is it moved from Florida (fascist state gov) to Oregon (complicated). Its company had originally held the .gay domain but released it to the public. (.gay was later picked up again by a registrar through legal mechanisms I know nothing about.)

@shadowfals @mzungu @nileane @slothrop
I moved all my email to Migadu.com, who provide straightforward email management, full control of spam filtering and so forth, and no bullshit. Company is in Switzerland with servers in France.

I use Porkbun for my domain registration because they, too, seemed quite straightforward and reasonably priced. Haven't heard anything bad about them yet (I mean, leaving Florida is always a plus, if you ask me).

I played with Proton for a bit as a possible password manager, but it just isn't as good as 1Password (nothing is, sadly), so I ditched it.

@slothrop Proton is not sponsoring this Vincent. They have a program that if you bring a new client you get a small amount. https://proton.me/partners

And the personal page this Vincent is referring to has been taken down. Check yourself https://proton.me/VincentLapierre
