Wow these all sound so much better than Proton's photo backup. In the words of @mhzawadi@lemmy.horwood.cloud , it's pants.
Proton reinventing the wheel is so stupid.
They should use what's out there and improve it. Like including simplelogin. They should use immich, make it private, and include it in their setup. They even suck for calendar. You can't integrate it anywhere. Integrating email is difficult as well. They want to become the next tech silo. I am somewhat stuck with them for now but I may move to tuta if I can
I'm with tuta but in term of integrability I don't feel there is a huge difference...
Thx for the heads up!
U've got well over 500 email addresses with proton. It'll take a long time to migrate, if ever.
Proton services generally are not bad, but I could never use Proton Drive for anything else than mid to long term backups, because they don't have it integrated with Linux. I am not angry though, it is what it is and I am only in the niche (even-though Linux is the best OS for privacy). Ever since I have setup my Truenas (and Immich) I find myself caring even less about not being able to use Proton drive 😀 That said, once they have integration I want to use it for a few files.
