Proton. It replaced PIA for me when it was introduced. Since I was already paying for Proton mail, there was no reason to keep paying for a separate VPN as well.
Reasonable decision. Proton is good for privacy π
Really? Protonmail doesn't have a clean track record. They backtracked their TOS, their onion site forwards to the clearnet, and they outed a French climate activist.
I seriously considered switching, but they donβt offer enough storage to make it a better value for me.
They give you extra storage every year on your anniversary.
Same story, made the switch and now I use the ecosystem except the password manager. It's a bunch of solid products. Tad Expensive (compared to free like Gmail) but I'm happy.
I've been trying out the password manager these past couple weeks to see how it compares to Bitwarden. Overall I've been impressed. Auto fill actually seems to be superior on Proton as it works on some sites that Bitwarden never would for me. My only real complaint at the moment is that the iOS app will log out of my account at random and it's a hassle to log back in since I don't always have my Proton pw on hand.
