I read the headline, and stopped reading. #Proton continues to suck on #Linux, still prefers privacy invasive operation systems.

I consider Proton's focus on privacy as pure marketing, as long as the focus is Windows, which wants to make a screenshot of the desktop, your mails, your docs every few seconds and upload it to OpenAI. Your encrypted mails become publicly readable, and maybe the template for mails written by Copilot.
