Why o why is private key encryption so hard to understand? Proton has private key generation for both emails and account. Then those are protected by passwords. Then, it is not clear when or where to export your private key. And heaven help you if you ask to import your key, because it asks do you really want to do this and it is a security risk. Of course I don’t know if I really want to import my key, I have no idea where or what to unlock with it anyway!!!
Encryption is important, and impossible for noobs to comprehend.
