I’d like to move off from the shackles of the Google menace and transferring my Gmail related accounts over including steam but I’d like some solid advice of any well regarded and better alternatives (including open source if that is possible)
I did search but was unsure of what was best as I did hear some shoddy things about Proton.
Do you know anything that could be the “aegis 2fa” of email providers?
Thank you and have a good day/night.
There is no such thing with the email protocol, and most providers don’t have that kind of hack.
To be clear, this page is a lie? https://proton.me/security/end-to-end-encryption
So even if I have the recipients public key the message actually goes to Proton servers in plaintext before it is encrypted?
That’s a small but important detail. If you have public keys from people at other providers, AND you trust their security (JS thing I guess), then fine. But 99.99% of the world do not have that and don’t know what it means.
If you want full trust, use Thunderbird and GnuPG. Proton is a nice package but you don’t control it, so no trust IMHO.
