Proton Pass pisses me off. Proton is such a money grubbing company that takes FOREVER to release stuff.
I pay $120 per year for ProtonMail, and they want me to pay $180 to unlock the full Proton Pass. $60 per year, for something that BitWarden does for only $12 per year.
Not to mention you'll be waiting years for apps to come out. They're such a fragmented company. The Android remake is already so far past the estimated release date it's sad. Proton Drive Windows app finally came out, but fuck Mac and Linux users, I guess.
BitWarden is available for Windows, Linux, Mac, 9 browsers, iOS, Android, and CLI. - Premium is $1/month.
ProtonPass is available for iOS, Android, and 4 browsers. - Premium is $5/month.
Can't wait for Proton to release a few more half baked services with outdated apps and a promise to update them in a year, but then 3 years later there's still radio silence. Perhaps use your paid services money for developing in a timely manner? Holy shit.
It's actually 10$ a year.
Not where I am from.
I meant the Bitwarden premium sub.
Well ya, but I'm not American, so it's not $10 for me.
It's also 10€ per year if you live in the EU.
That's because Euro and USD are similar. That's how currency works. It's not $10 where I live lol.
Oh well.
100% They attack so many fronts in the worst way possible.
Also why would someone who want enhanced privacy put all their eggs in the basket by trapping themself in Proton's ecosystem. Compartmentalize is important, and it ends up being cheaper too. Proton's pricing is cutthroat.
They are not in the privacy business. They are in the business of business.
I'm using proton mail for free, paying like $12 a year for proton pass.
How?
That's interesting. Looks like I received an email to get 75% off and I signed up using that
I agree with the fragmented part. Even their apps have different unlock interfaces, like they're each made by a different company
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.
