I hear you. But in that case, why not just use Gmail?
For $50/year I do expect Protonmail to be more like a life coach for privacy and surveillance. Not for me personally, but for the people who really need protection. It's just email, I can get it cheap anywhere.
For example, their one and only blog post about Tor is from 2017.
I expect better. Promote Tor on the homepage. Publish about what percentage of your users use Tor. Fight to change norms not just pass the buck.
Get with the times, Protonmail. Or someone else will do it for you.

Well, just for starters, GMail is hosted in a different and more authoritarian jurisdiction where you don't even need a court order and due process of law to be compelled to share information with the authorities. I think that sitting in the frying pan and whatabouting the fire is self-evidently a better course of action than jumping into it. But it's still not a good one, and risks inspiring others to jump into it.
