I think they are trustworthy and the sexy alternative to Gmail. I've been testing both Proton and Tuta as my replacement. Proton is more expensive, but provides more services. Tuta is smaller, cheaper and gives off a user centric vibe. Proton seems to be emulating bigtech a bit too much with their release of a privacy chatbot today. I'm personally leaning towards keeping Tuta over Proton.
