@Jain @icedquinn @Mr_NutterButter They complied with non-Swiss court orders in the past. Just look at their transparency report from 2018.

If you look at their new transparency report, they don't even offer descriptions anymore, and they comply more than they resist, so who knows what it truly going on.
ProtonMail has other flaws. For one, if you want to end-to-end encrypt your emails using PGP/GPG, you can't provide your own keys. ProtonMail generates them server side using your password. The only person who should have access to your private keys is you.
Mr_NutterButter is right that no email service is truly private as you can never know what they are truly doing unless you have physical access to the server, but I wouldn't trust ProtonMail just because of these two flaws.
My recommendation would be to use fedora.email which is run by @sjw (registrations are currently disabled but maybe you can PM him if you want an account) or posteo.de, which is a paid service (1 EUR/month and accepts cash-by-mail like Mullvad VPN) and allows third-party mail clients and using your own GPG keys.

@Fiddle That's demotivating to all aspiring gamedevs.
@tinosoft Can you give a summary? I can't read Spanish.
Pixelfed was forked, I joined their discord and gave them a piece of my mind
Forks fucking rule, I'm happy to see this. Open source is crucial to the fediverse, and while we all might not agree on everything, it feels amazing to desire to work with forks
Y'all are the real winners, even more so when devs like me do the unthinkable and bring awareness to forks

well, well. we made it friends. through thick and thin and against a lot of people's wishes Poast is officially 3 years old.
what started out as a shitty mastodon server we somehow managed to convince 2000 people from twitter to join in the span of only a few hours on January 13, 2021 to over 30,000 strong today.
in three short years we managed to best every single challenge and hurdle thrown at us from brainlet dramanigger accusations to 0day exploits, news hit pieces and financial struggles we made it through all of it.
we are thankful that you have all stuck around despite everything, growing pains and all and we look forward to many more years here with you.
🎂🎈 god bless you poast and thank you for everything 🎈🎉
if you like what we do and you want to see poast stick around, consider becoming a patron or making a one off donation

Did someone say encryption? Encryption helps protect the privacy of people you communicate with, and makes life difficult for bulk surveillance systems. Learn more with our Email Self Defense guide: https://u.fsf.org/1df #GPG #PGP #E2E #encryption
I'm surprised that I haven't heard about this until now, but Discourse and Falrum have ActivityPub support now.

@gabriel I did enjoy his unique perspective. I can understand why he left, but I really didn't know what he thought replying to corporate accounts like Tutanota, Mozilla, and DuckDuckGo was supposed to accomplish.
