Any good alternatives that have the password/identity manager and email? I'm ready to switch.

Addy.io instead of simplelogin

Bitwarden for pass (see also passky, vaultwarden, and passbolt, plus keepass+syncthing)

Posteo mail/cal

Sync, icedrive, filenio, or any number of competitors for cheap file storage

Wait... I thought Proton was owned by Valve.

Oh well, anyone know a cheap yet reliable VPN I can switch too?

Azire is great, they just dont have port forwarding. For that reason I use airvpn witch is okay too.

[edit] whoa, just noticed they got bought by malwarebytes. There goes that recommendation.

DIdn't Malware Bytes used to not suck once?

Who gives a shit? Proton is one of the best companies when it comes to privacy, why should I care about the CEO's political views?
