Proton: “We’re consolidating our social media presence due to limited resources and no longer posting on Mastodon. Follow us on Reddit for the latest updates: Reddit - Dive into anything”. This is unexpected, as they had around 50k subscribers on Mastodon, and mirroring posts is super easy. I find that concerning that they stopped posting on open and decentralized platform, but keep posting on Meta and X.

    Btw, their Mastodon account has more followers than their Bluesky and Threads accounts combined, both of which they are keeping. What a stupid decision.

      It’s not stupidity; it’s censorship. They can control what gets posted on their own Reddit community. They can’t control what people are actually saying on the fediverse.

      People need to realize that Proton has gone to the shitter; stop paying for them and migrate away as soon as possible.

        Hmm good point. Honestly didn’t think about that. In that case I’m surprised they’re keeping the Bluesky account up, the replies are 90% negative there.

          Checked both out of curiosity and seems like they are active on twitter but stopped posting weeks ago on bluesky after their feelings got hurt there from ceo backlash.
