Why do you say not the best move for Proton?
Mostly it's accusations of vibe coding a supposedly secure ecosystem. The Trump thing wasn't great, but I think it was largely blown out of proportion.
At the time I was looking for a Google replacement, which Proton kind of is. It's got mail, calendar, and a drive, all that stuff. Since then, I've learned or realized that I would prefer to be invested in individual services like mailbox.org, mullvad, keepass, etc. So that if one service fails, I can just divest myself from that individual service not an entire ecosystem.
I agree with the Trump thing kinda being blown out of proportion, but I haven't heard about the vibe coding part? I know there was one point where they used ChatGPT for something and were called out for the irony of it, but I don't think they are majorly vibe coded. Because everything is open source, and they routinely get audited, I trust them enough to use their products. I do agree however, that not having all your eggs in one basket is a better ideology from a security standpoint. From a convenience standpoint (and wife factor), I pay for everything Proton :P.
