Why are you paying for Proton?
🔸Proton Calendar — No point having your calendar on the cloud.
🔸Proton Wallet — No one will ever use it because it's a huge privacy risk and lacks even the most basic of features.
🔸Proton Docs — It's a niche product, very few people will use it.
🔸Proton Mail — Email it's a flawed protocol with no privacy. The Free plan is enough.
🔸Proton Pass — There's no reason for your passwords and 2FA codes to be on the cloud (huge risk).
🔸Proton Drive — It doesn't work reliably for backups. Both their webapp and Android app have issues, if you try to upload thousands of files/folders at once, it glitches and stops uploading, some files are lost randomly. They still haven't given Linux support in all these years.
🔸Proton VPN — The Android app is solid, but they don't care about their Linux app. A lot of websites are blocking VPNs nowadays, and Proton 'Stealth' protocol doesn't work. The Free plan is enough.
