What European email services do you use?

Please recommend other interesting email services by your experience.

I have switched from Google's Gmail to ProtonMail and kMail. I really like both, kMail (by Infomaniak) have very similar app interface to Gmail so you will get used to it very fast and also have big storage for free and very good offers for paid plans 👍🏼

Here! I found the American bot.

Proton is a perfectly good alternative. Encrypted and European based. Also one of the easiest User Experiences for those moving out of Gmail.

This kind of nonsense just creates confusion and leads to people sticking with Gmail/Google

Edit: the bots also vote. Yay

Why did you completely ignore the content of the comment? You're the one sounding like a bot here.

[-] professionalspooner@feddit.org 9 points 8 hours ago

Because the content of the comment has been addressed multiple times in threads like this. As with everything, the world is not black and white.

This thread and comment on Reddit do a better job on addressing the comment (sorry for linking for Reddit)

We know Trump for over a decade now. I don't buy this apologist approach to excusing the shitty behavior of people in the spotlight. If you have half a brain you know by now what type of person Trump is and from a CEO I expect more then half a brain.

Regardless, Proton products are a better choice then Google.

@professionalspooner @verdigris @buyeuropean people are entitled to their opinion though. If they don't want a product because of it's CEO, that's totally fine

Yeah but if they spread misinformation about the CEO, it can be called out

E.g.: see Tesla nowadays.
