    That’s the only reason I won’t use Proton, because the app and the network is not clean. The best security encryption is made from public protocols, so app and servers should be open source.

      I did open an account once (for the free vpn), but ditched it very soon because it could not use a normal mail client. I need all my mail in one place, and I need convenient PGP however rarely it does happen.
