Proton send me this offer with a timer of 2,3 days.

I’d gladly take the offer if there wasn’t the potential for me to accidentally show Google my proton mail… Is there a way for a newbie like me?

      I mean yes, doesnt change the fact that I got the extra space without letting google know via a throwaway adress

    You can set up the auto forward to an alias, so Gmail wouldn’t even see your original address.

    Hold on, I am in the process of moving to proton j and then discontinuing my gmail. But I am clearing out last 15 years of gmail crap before I run the wizard from proton to grab all my gmail mails…I guess there is no other way when you want to close down a gmail account eventually?

      You can pay for more space on Proton as well, though it’s a little more than $2 a month
