I wish they had a real IMAP/SMTP support and not some kind of unreliable service you have to run locally that does a bridge. GPG key management is also a disaster. So they made it easy to communicate with others using proton fine, but

There is a brain drain because there are little to no opportunities if you are skilled and less skilled people keep trying to push you down the ladder. If you stop people from moving, they will grow discontent and will probably not be worki
