Or just use an open source email client. I would expect their own apps to be open source, are they not?

- j-bos 1y agoIndeed they are: https://github.com/ProtonMail https://github.com/ProtonMail If you, or someone else, like please audit the repos. Could be cool to see trusted forks of some of the clients.
- balamatom 1y agoUsing an email client requires a Proton Bridge thing that acts as a local IMAP/SMTP proxy: https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge As if disabling the issue tracker and stonewalling pull requests wasn't bad enough, seeing how it is built out of multiple layers that communicate via gRPC was what made me instantly lose all trust in Proton. I don't know who's been doing their hiring but just from one look at that kludge it's evident they've lost the plot altogether. (There's a third-party alternative called Hydroxide, but it's experimental. Haven't been able to send emails through it from Thunderbird yet, though I've only looked into this for a few hours recently.)
