I missed this. What’s the deal here?

Apparently an unfounded smear campaign against ProtonMail: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/8ww4h2/protonvpn...

I see. Thanks for the reply. The official ProtonMail response seems legit enough.

This is great to see, well done ProtonMail. I asked Fastmail if they would open source their email app on Android but was told no.

> the probability of the app to be opensourced is very unlikely

Can not you use MS Outlook as email reader then search using it?

In Linux?

I didn't know you were using linux, can't you use a replacement such as mozilla thunderbird?

I wonder if it's possible to migrate my Gmail-powered email address while keeping my family's inboxes there. I'm interested in joining Protonmail but I can't afford to pay for everyone, nor will they understand my wish to move away from Google. I guess it can't be done as it's at the domain level, am I right?

does everyone in your family currently have the email name they want or did they have to compromise by putting numbers at the end or use similar tricks? ...because theres probably a better chance of getting the name they want with ProtonMail. the shorter name@pm.me email address is a nice feature to have as well

The problem resides in the fact that I'm currently using G-Suite, so yeah everyone has the email they want and I'm using my own domain.
