Why the hell would anyone trust mozilla.org while they work tirelessly to make money? Google, who are unapologetically pro-money, at least listened to feedback about DoH.

Yep, migrated from Gmail and very happily so :)
I want to migrate from Gmail but I have my Gmail address tied up to so many things. How do you make the move ?

a bit like a physical address - forward the mail on for x months and then cut off completely

ProtonVPN provides the source code for their desktop and mobile clients in their GitHub organization [1]. Yes open source != safe; however this level of transparency is at least a step in the right direction. They also have regularly been audited by independent organizations that are openly available for the public to see their compliance [2][3][4][5][6]. Do you have any evidence to suggest that they are honeypots? […
And how do you know if what they built is exactly what's in that source?
You can download the entire repository, and self compile yourself after you inspect the code.

Unless I set up my own VPN I'll share a VPN server and IP with other people. That makes my traffic inherently more anonymous once it has left the VPN server, since you can't correlate traffic to a single person anymore. So even if traffic in the data center is analyzed, that's better than my ISP analyzing traffic. Thus we only have to establish that the VPN provider is at least as trustworthy as my ISP. That's a pret…
You should expect that the government can compel a VPN provider to correlate traffic to subscriber information exactly the same way it does with a residential ISP.
Come on Mozilla, hurry up! I want to give you money for goods and services (I also donate monthly [1]), but I'm not that interested in a VPN (I can and do also pay Mullvad). Give me that real internet stuff - email, calendar, file sync, chat(?) - give me Firefox Premium. Bundle in the Lockwise password manager. I'd pay good money to see a company fill the void of paid, privacy first essential internet services and I…
Once Keychain got good enough, I transitioned to Safari 98% and dropped 1Password. iCloud syncing is nice too.

Anecdotally, it just seems like a lot of web sites are poorly tested against Safari, so I run into weird stuff. Also, Safari now inevitably abends, seemingly after binging YouTube.
I favor Safari, mostly because of lower power consumption. I have only positive things to say about Firefox. I've always liked it and I've read they keep improving the power stuff. If I ever do front end work again, I'll definitely go back to 50/50.

Leaving gmail is on my to do list. I've just been too lazy to follow thru. I dunno why, but if Mozilla partnered with FastMail, I'd be more motivated. Probably for bragging rights, virtue signaling.

Omg, my thoughts exactly! I dont want services... I dont want anything except that with the donations they will break away from google. That is it. And I bet a lot of us here would gladly donate, I donate to EFF while mozilla could in theory have more impact.

I was just about to change to something different from LastPass, pretty much convinced about Bitwarden from previous HN mentions, until you mentioned Lockwise :-) care to share some pros and cons or comparison between these two?
