Nostr communities were calling it a honeypot (even though all they talk about everyday is cryptocurrencies). I am also calling it a honeypot. Also, if they care about privacy, why not make Proton Wallet compatible with Monero? This is why I left Protonmail after one year of using it. They are the shittiest privacy company ever. They only seem like they care about privacy, but I know they aren’t. I mean, any privacy focused company that has that “Hot now” or “Best seller” etc. thing on their pricing page can’t be trusted. I switched to Posteo since their privacy policy and website seem to be much much better than what Protonmail’s ever could be. They don’t even support POP3, fortunately Posteo does. Proton was redirecting Tor users from their .onion domains to clear net domains a few years ago and even then they were requiring a SMS verification just because you were using Tor. How “private” of them.
People on Lemmy really should start realizing this about Proton but some are just stubborn.
You are allowed to hate Proton, but don’t be hyperbolic about it. There are far worse companies, just a few of which are Nestlé, Del Monte, and Chiquita (formerly the United Food Company), all of which have committed genocide in the pursuit of their profit.
The last time I checked, Proton has never committed genocide to further their goals.

How did you get from Proton to Nestle? I am here to discuss privacy and tech, not food.
You didn’t say, “They are the shittiest privacy company ever.”
You said, “They are the shittiest company ever.”
If you want to specify a subset, use your words. That’s what they’re there for.
Done.
