    Ah just in time for me to unsubscribe because they’ve started putting ads in my premium account!

        You probably don’t have a premium account; you have the whatever they call the new premium accounts. The premium accounts are legacy and don’t get new features, so you just have those features and don’t get advertised them.

        There are also the thinly veiled ‘news’ emails that show up with special CSS flair in your inbox- but it’s not news, it just them trying to upsell you stuff and get you hyped about [Latest Product].

          I have seen the tuta news… That really did annoy me, I emailed them every time I get one of them asking them not to do it anymore. It should just be a regular email. Not some special fake email.

      Its a similar problem with Proton for me. Proton doesn’t even let you sync to 3rd party cal app on the free tier.

      If you’re going to paywall basic functionality, that just prevents me from trying it for a while and eventually become so tied to it, it’s difficult to break free. Google had the right plan from the get-go.

      IMO they’re both good options. Afaik, Tuta has an open source backend, unlike Proton. However, Proton has had great recent independent security audits, and court orders against them have shown how little information they keep.

      Proton offers more features and services, which also makes it a bit more expensive. I’ve used and like both, but right now I have a Proton Unlimited subscription because I like their drive, vpn, and password manager.
