Cancelled my Proton subscription citing this as the reason. Hope others do the same. This administration is not normal and relations should never be normalized with them.

Yep, did the same. Started using Tuta for email, solid privacy and UI, app available on F-Droid, and the bonus for me was them being powered by renewables.

The language in the tweet was telling, i.e party of the "little guys" and tagging the president for visibility. You can't turn a blind eye to all the other destabilizing things this admin is doing just because they made 1 semi-competent cabinet pick (which should be the baseline expectation).

Planning to do the same, but first I have to find an alternative for my mail, probably I will try a self hosted mail server for a while

@m105 @Fizz there's quite a few Swiss mail providers that may be of interest. Self-hosting mail can be a pain as those IPs tend to have a lower threshold for getting blocked/blacklisted. And make sure all your SPF, DKIM etc is fully configured.
