Article: https://proton.me/blog/deepseek

Calls it "Deepsneak", failing to make it clear that the reason people love Deepseek is that you can download and it run it securely on any of your own private devices or servers - unlike most of the competing SOTA AIs.

I can't speak for Proton, but the last couple weeks are showing some very clear biases coming out.

Ah I see. So now to the possibly tough question, if you had to choose only one, or recommend only one of them to someone who wants to make a minimal amount of new email addresses, which one would you recommend over the other? ๐Ÿ˜… Or maybe a third option?

Just following up on this, I stumbled on this: https://tuta.com/mailbox

I think it might help. I could definitely see that depending on your use case, Mailbox may be a better choice. I think for general privacy they're both good, with Tuta having a few "a step above" offerings security-wise but maybe not necessary for most users.

I think I'd need some more time to really answer, but on the outset, I find Mailbox.org's interface more intuitive with more settings and generally feels cleaner and more streamlined. Creating aliases and domain aliases in mailbox seems more proton-like in its simplicity.

Tuta I think is more private and secure, but bits of their interface and app need polish. One reason I think Tuta is more secure despite them both touting security and privacy is that Mailbox search works immediately, whereas Tuta requires you to agree to a permission and states it stores everything locally to you so it may take up space. I think Tuta isn't doing any server-side indexing of any kind? Unsure.

edit: Mailbox doesn't have a native app, and Tuta has a native app but I think it's largely a webview. Notifications work OK but you'll click on a notification and then have to wait for the app to actually connect and resync before you can view it.
