As far as I can tell there is no mail essentials plan that costs $9.55 (talking USD/EUR/CHF which is all I can see).

Here's when you learn other countries exist. I am Canadian. I don't talk in USD, EUR, or CHF. I talk in CAD. My payment provider doesn't tell me I paid "X USD", it tells me I paid "X CAD".

I suppose it’s possible you are on some grandfathered plan that is more expensive because you have more custom domains (I seem to maybe remember that being possible back in the day?).

I am not, but you're correct about Proton offering to add more custom domains without having to change to a whole new tier. Another perfect example of how they nickel and dime. They realized they could squeeze more money by forcing people who need more than 3 custom domains to upgrade to a higher tier, than just to pay for the few extra domains.

You called them a money grubbing company and tried to pass yourself off as a regular user who’s paying all this money and then having to get charged more.

Again, they are money grubbing, because they removed the ability to customize your plan, and force tier changes.

When in fact, for 99% of users your situation isn’t applicable at all; and in fact you are on a weird, old, business plan (to which you’d probably save money switching to a new business regular plan [for $12.99 - $9.99] which supports up to 10 custom email domains + all premium proton services).

I am NOT on an old business plan. I am on THE business plan for $15. Again, not everyone uses USD, EUR, or CHF.

$12.99 USD = $17.65 CAD.

And looking into proton pass, it seems like the majority of the cost is because of the email alias service that comes with it. Bitwarden doesn’t in fact provide that (though they do support integration of it) and a quick look at other providers that only provide custom emails it shows similar monthly fees (still less than proton pass to be fair).

Since Proton loves tiers, offer a more expensive tier for the email alias. They should offer a tier similar to BitWarden with similar pricing, and then offer a higher tier for the email alias, something most people don't care about.

So to me, it seems like a bit of unwarranted slander and lies (though I suppose, again, you could be on an old grandfathered plan; but it still doesn’t explain how the “next step up” is $15) because of some beef you have against them.

For the third time. Other countries exist. I know it's a crazy concept, but it's true. I didn't slander anyone, thanks.

That's also very true. Seems like a change just to change.

Switching the lens switcher and gallery buttons around is annoying as shit. Literally accomplishes nothing, except to fuck with us. They're not even redesigned or repositioned. Just swapped.

Edit: also doesn't work for me. Constant crashing when trying to open. I'm on the latest beta.

Edit 2: apkm bundle works.

I was already hosting them, but it's not worth it. I've been looking into switching to one of the other privacy focused alternatives that provide the ability to pay per domain, so you can add more without having to jump up tiers and pay for crap you don't want.

That's because Euro and USD are similar. That's how currency works. It's not $10 where I live lol.

Not the point.

Paying for something is great. Not allowing paying customers to add a simple service without having to upgrade to the next tier, forcing them to buy shit they don't want, is scummy.

Well ya, but I'm not American, so it's not $10 for me.

But if you copy/paste random commands from the internet and it breaks your distro you're stupid.

But I'm not gonna tell you how to do it via GUI. So here, copy this terminal command.

The better analogy is 50K people are in a room, 80% of them are mute and deaf (they don't comment so you can't talk to them);10% have the complete opposite opinion and you don't want to communicate with them; and the other 10% share your interests, but they are busy communicating with the other people. So at the end of the day you have 2% of people to converse with.

2% of people finding your posts, upvoting, and interacting with you. Not much.

Truth.

I try linux probably 2 times per year, every year, and at least hop between 5+ distros. Every time I run into issues, I ask the community, and I am completely shit on.

"Go back to microsoft you dumb fuck". Like ok. Didn't realize a distro completely nuking itself by me clicking update in the software manager was a me problem, but sure.

Every time you comment something like this, nice people come in and tell you how the Linux community is so accepting, followed by 30 comments telling you to kill yourself lmao.

How?

Not where I am from.
