From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I do not, but only because I use ProtonMail and don't have premium so I don't have IMAP/SMTP bridging.
I used it all the time back around 2011/2012 and it was pretty great, but that was admittedly a long time ago so I imagine lots have changed since them.
I do have protonmail premium with my own domain, but the IMAP bridging is for desktop. It's a small program that kind of works as a MITM, one side connecting to protonmail securely using, i guess, not IMAP, and the other acting as an IMAP server that your mail clients connect to. On mobile you have to use the protonmail app, AFAIK.
Oh, I wasn't aware bridging was desktop-only. Thanks for correcting me. 👍
