I use Protonmail as they offer quite a bit of privacy, offer lots of features, and are free. I particularly like that they protect from tracking pixels notifying the sender you read their email.
Same. Proton gang.
I have plenty to criticize about their lack of creature comforts, but alas.
Yeah.... I love proton but their android app also needs work. They'll get there!
Yeah, the Android app is total garbage.
I don't know if it'll ever "get there" because they've not demonstrated that they're putting in any effort at all. It's currently on version 3.0.16. According to ApkMirror, they released 3.0.1 in June of 2022. So that's over a year of "stability improvements and bug fixes". Meanwhile they launched Proton Pass, Proton captcha, desktop clients for Drive, introducing new plans, etc.
Honestly, I just want threaded conversations on mobile.
They released the rewrite as a beta apk at the weekend for testers. So it's definitely going somewhere.
It's faster and has conversations on the app too.
