To ensure our mission always comes first, Proton is transitioning to a non-profit structure and formalizing our promise of people before profits.

      I wish they just didn’t jump on current hypes, like crypto and AI.

        Proton is in the crypto game?

            Aye, given their focus on privacy it’s not a huge surprise. Probably something that got asked for a lot in surveys.

            Now if they started shilling ProtonCoin or something…

                Both are useless as payment in the real world at any meaningful scale ATM.

                  I pay for my VPS and domain with Monero. It will never be as big as Visa, but it doesn’t have to be - it has its niche.

                    It’s not unfortunate. It’s not accepted as currency because it does none of the things currency is for.

              A LLM to write emails and a crypto wallet were among the least voted/requested features on their last big survey and yet barely a month after the survey was done, they’ve released both things.

              There’s still no calendar widget on Android and iOS and other very basic things that have been widely requested for years now

            Ew oh well. At least unlike brave and others it isn’t shoved in my face all the time. Been a paying user for two years now and I didn’t even know about it lol
