  • Proton will still be a for-profit company that will be majority-controlled by a non-profit. The non-profit will not own all of the business either, so there will still be profits going to shareholders.

  • In addition to Run Your Own Mail Server, all backers will get some of Michael’s previous books including:

    • Networking for Systems Administrators
    • Ed Mastery
    • git commit murder (mystery novel)
    • PAM Mastery
    • Savaged by Systemd: an Erotic Unix Encounter (optional)
    • Sudo Mastery, 2nd Edition

    And SSH Mastery if the campaign reaches $65,535

  • Permanently Deleted

  • If checking their email a couple of times per year is too high a requirement, I would not recommend the time and effort necessary to maintain a mail server. Even people who enjoy self-hosting often do not want to host a mail server.

  • I use Radicale for my calendars, reminders, and contacts precisely because of how minimal it is. It has been very reliable for me and is very easy to back up and restore since it is just files.

  • This is disappointing as someone who does not want everything centralized under one company. I have tried to diversify the services I use, but this is the second one that Proton has acquired.

    SimpleLogin development has essentially been stalled since they were acquired by Proton as resources were used to develop Pass instead. I have a feeling that Standard Notes will be treated similarly.
