Anyone have any recommendations for email, drive, vpn, and password manager?

goddamn it… just as I finally move my family…
self host or bust I guess
What on Earth does “build” mean? It’s a website that offers email. It’s done, what’s left to do?
They have more than just email
Software generally also needs to be patched, even if your don’t add features
But maintenance of a mature codebase doesn’t usually require much writing of code. Forcing employees to use AI to write a bunch of code in that situation is pure lunacy
Dammit

Tuta is currently looking into using AI in development
The current Tuta apps are built more than 99% without AI, but we are currently testing whether it makes sense to use AI tools to help developers speed up repetitive processes and increase efficiency overall. The goal of Tuta is to bring privacy to everyone and for that the Tuta apps must become much more feature-rich and competitive with Big Tech equivalents (eg Gmail)
Here we go. I literally just started looking into them today. Fuck, is AI inevitable?
Yeeeeaaaaaah, about Mullvad…

I’d recommend iVPN, NymVPN
or Obscuraas another user said.Damnit, that’s a huge disappointment. Obscura actually uses Mullvad as its exit node, so that might sway me away from Obscura. Why is everyone a right wing nutjob???
Oh ffs.
Yeah Mullvad was also my goto, I’ve been looking at ivpn as an option going forward.
NymVPN is pushing their own crypto coin, which is an instant red flag in my opinion. Obscura is a US company and it is also using Mullvad exit servers themselves, so if your goal is to avoid Mullvad then it might not even be what you want. Both are also more expensive than Mullvad.
Personally I do not think that avoiding Mullvad is even necessary. Mullvad does have a track record of actual good activism and I do not think this one co-founder’s donation is enough to offset all the good things Mullvad is doing. The other co-founder distanced himself from the other guy’s donation. The company also issued a statement. The TLDR is: they always knew that they have different political views, but they are still working together to further their specific common goal of free information and privacy. https://mullvad.net/de/blog/donation-controversy
Why the fuck do software product developers peddle crypto coins? They’re not even in digital finance!
Been satisfied with mailbox.org as my email provider for over a year now, switched to it from Proton.
Wow. I guess that’s it then. Everything enshittifies eventually. I’m cancelling Proton.
Well Fuck that guy. I have a free Protonmail account. I already contacted their support and quoted back Mr. Yen’s AI standpoint and my horror at the disrespect for his employees he showed, as the reasons why I’ll be closing my account today.
“Moving fast” and accepting “AI”-generated code without careful audits by humans is not compatible with security. Period. What an asshat. I will wait with full-on Schadenfreude the headlines in a few months: ‘ProtonMail and apps hacked, thousands of accounts exposed!’. Wait and see.
