Their server side is already non-free.
I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks, I’ll avoid it in the future.
TO CLARIFY:
They will replace it as soon as possible, but they needed some verification method, because what company they used before to do this, went bankrupt! So don’t worry!
Disroot also has a verification method and doesn’t include non-free software.
Please upvote this, so more people can see it.
Does anybody use their sevice? If so why? They seem pretty expensive and you can’t pay anonymously or use the free tier via tor/proxy. Also they say dumb shit like “We have invested heavily in owning and controlling our own server hardware at several locations within Switzerland so your data never goes to the cloud.”

I tried to sign up via tor some time ago and had to solve an impossible javascript-only google captcha, receive an sms or donate to verify that I am human.

They are in F-Droid. Both apps. I downloaded the VPN and Mail version from F-Droid.
I cannot find the Proton mail app in F-Droid. Do you have an F-Droid web link for it ?
Try Izzyondroid repo

So the value they provide lies in the software they provide? I would have compared it more to an e-mail hosting service, but it looks like they have some features beyond “we put pgp in the browser because people don’t seem to figure out how to use it themselves”.
our infrastructure runs on the highly reliable AWS cloud
Ok this is definitely worse than telling your customers “our cloud is not a cloud because we own the servers”.

In the EU (with better-than-nothing privacy legislation) we have a lot of companies that own data centers that offer hosted mail services, thats also what I compared them to when I said they are expensive. But they of course don’t have all the nice software and you have to do the (end-to-end) encryption on your own. They (have to) do transport encryption where possible but they don’t usually enforce encryption when you connect via IMAP/POP3/SMTP. So there is a lot more users can do wrong. But I think that when using a webinterface doing the encryption outside of the browser is a good idea.
Use Tutanota and don’t say non-senses
It’s not dumb shit, nowadays if you create a company like that you need to rely on someone else’s servers, so your word of keeping your data safe means nothing. At least if they don’t keep their word with their own servers, they’d be going down on their own.
Also, the question “does anybody use their service” sounds very naive of what’s going on in the world, a lot of people uses Protonmail, it’s probably the first choice of people wanting to avoid big companies.
The term cloud is commonly used for hosting on external data centers accessable via the internet for convenience. I can’t see how having your mail hosted by protonmail is any different, they are “a cloud”. With “does anybody user their services” I wanted to know about people on lemmy, I guess the proper word would be “someone”.
it’s probably the first choice of people wanting to avoid big companies.
They have their own data centers so they can’t really be that small. Also there are multiple thousands of e-mail hosting providers.
People already know me by that email, so I at the very least need to keep the account open even if I switch.
I use it but not as my main email.
I use it to subscribe to all those services that spam your inbox; e.g. spotify, amszon, linkedin, xing, steam, local restaurants, etc. It also use to be my main email in 2016, so some acquaintances still only have that email, si I should keep it open. Plus, I am on the free plan, so I am not losing anything.
I use Tutanota as my main email; for bank, personal emails, official stuff, important accounts, etc. I am on a paid subscription for Tutanota.
? I have registered multiple protonmail addresses over the years and used them via .onion (violating their TOS) and no problem.
I’m not aware of any other service that has .onion registrations and uses E2E automatically.
Better than google though, no?
I use it just like SHODAN does, but also for normal life activities that are linked to me. And it is the most accepted email domain outside of Gmail or Outlook.

Their email is so safe and annonimous that they need send your data to google captcha which gets your ip location etc etc etc
