Hi guys!

I’m looking for a Proton alternative. So far I’ve seen these two recommended. I was wondering what are the pros/cons of each? Seems Tutanota offers more bang for the buck in mailbox size etc, but I’m not sure. I’d also like to have a better integration with Android, because Proton’s email/calendar apps suck big time.

Thanks!

    Every once in a while they’ll send you an email with special CSS styling so you can’t avoid seeing it and you can’t unsubscribe from it. They call it a newsletter. It’s advertising. It’s less news and more begging you to buy more of their stuff. Very occasionally they’ll bump new features onto a higher tier but still show that feature in your UI, with special CSS styling. God forbid if they try to upgrade your account but you deny because you’re happy with the features you have now and the amount you pay; they push harder and harder the longer you’re on a ‘legacy’ tier.

    It happened to me. It’ll happen to you.

      The GDPR ensures there’s no mailing list you cannot unsubscribe from, if they won’t let you it’s not a good thing
