Hello everyone,

I'd like to know from Tuta users, why do you prefer it to proton?

Personally i use proton however after the recent fiasco it has inspired me to look beyond, and Tuta is a very popular option.

My question is: Why? Proton so far hasn't failed me, only disappointed. Is there any reason for me to switch to tuta in this case?

Peace to you all ✌️

i use both. Started to test them at the same time some years ago. If you're going to use their apps on mobile, there's no practical difference between them.

"recent fiasco" is reason enough to privilege tuta over proton

That's good to know. I started testing tuta too, besides the UI (protons was better) there was pretty much no difference at all. But the fiasco gives a +1 to tuta for me, so I guess I will switch.

Thanks!
