I had finally transitioned fully away from Google’s shit and then you guys start bitching that Proton is evil.
I hate this site
I’m in the same boat, I’m not migrating again unless shit really goes downhill.
Lemmy gives the vibe of “it’s all or nothing, be ready to change at a moment’s notice if something iffy gets said”
Nothing is perfect, every step in the right direction should be celebrated.
Well done!!
Yes Lemmy is primarily used by people to the left of Bernie Sanders
Wait is we hate ?Proton VPN now
Yeah the CEO praised Trump’s business acumen specifically while “remaining neutral”. This has led people to believe their policies aren’t as waterproof as they claim.
They also doubled down on it with the official proton accounts and left privavy-focused social media in favor of corporate censored social media, specifically.
Trump is good is the official position of the company now since they doubled down.
It really really calls into question if they are lying about their company’s values and it is just marketing. People seem to give them extra leeway because they are swiss and the whole “neutrality” BS, but nestle is one of the worst companies in the entire world and they are swiss 😅
Swiss neutrality is a joke.
Neutral in that they will follow whoever’s putting money in their pockets.
They helped immensely Nazi Germany during WWII, stalled shipment of military gear to Ukraine, shelter Russian money; and will probably follow whatever fascist gov the US will have in a few years.
For tech, Switzerland would be the last country I’d trust after CryptoAG and co.Neutrality for them is a marketing term.
Ugh. Any recs on good and free vpns?
Is it ok to use a good product even when the CEO is retarded or nah?
The only truly “good” consumption is to only use local products ethically produced from members of your community. The further you get from that, the more opportunities for the transaction to stray from “not good.”
It is very difficult or impossible to be 100% good.
When I consider this, my main concerns are “do I want to give money to this company?” and “is there a morally better alternative that meets my needs, including going without?”
Once you answer those questions for yourself, you should have a better idea if you want to continue doing business with them.
I think it’s okay; as far as companies go they’re pretty good, and they actually care about privacy which is nice.

SNIP SNIP, YO!

Mail
Also a car brand and a subatomic particle
There’s only one real Proton.
Captain Proton…! But I saw you fall into the fiery mouth of that volcano!
Username checks out.
And it’s not even a new account.
I was saved at the last minute!
Let me sing it to you!
neutrons and electrons reportedly very upset as well.
Well, one group was only neutral but the other was negative.

When somebody says they like Proton:
Proton is very aladeen
The CEO of proton(mail) is currently on a mission to destroy the company, so won’t be too many for long.
Aw bummer, do you have any quick details? I’m out of the loop
He started sucking cheetos nob, even before it was cool and all the other businesses did.
Lol great way to put that thank you!
He tweeted once and is therefore canceled because social media doesn’t understand nuance or context
Like the “Roman Salute” out of context, or actually out of context ?
At least none of them sucks quite like electron (the thing that bundles chrome to make “native” javascript applications)
Yeah why do we need electron
Honest answer? It makes it easy to release an application cross platform.
Personal / hot-take answer? Because we are human and our drive for mediocrity is astounding…especially when it can save a few bucks. Why make something good when you can make something less good faster and cheaper? That should be Electron’s slogan.
Malaysian Proton?
Sexy like can I import that oh fucking forget it
Yeah, around 1080 is quite a lot
Election: Shitty Web apps Proton: shitty Mail, VPN, Cloud storage Proton: Gaymes gooo brrrr (actually good) Proton: Go brrrrr (I’m gonna make a program called neutron lol, as soon as I stop procrastinating )
Where’s the neutron love?
Thought you’d never ask. https://youtu.be/i-jdhorGtQI?t=17
Not protons, but it’s crazy to me that photons are everything that we see AND radio waves.
I keep seeing photons everywhere I go. Even more often that AI.
