They're just too expensive. Like, sure, it costs money to run, but 3.49€/month (the discounted 24 month rate) for the mail only plan, 15 GB storage. (41.88€, $45.17 USD, $67.28 AUD per year)

That's really expensive if you just want mail.

The other stuff, is also really expensive. To the point that makes you think, "there is no way google is making THIS much to make up the difference in advertising to me for a comparable plan".

If you just need an email account I'd suggest to have a look at posteo.de. I am with them for many years now. Price is good and terms also.

You get mailserver capabilities with that tier as well though. You shouldn't be using the plus plan unless you need the email storage or host custom domains and don't want to deal with the admin.

Finally. This and decent photo app is what Proton needed. Hoping they would keep going on this path

Great, hopefully it is as useful. Surveys and such are a must for any migration.

Are they trying to become Google alternative?

Interesting. I will try to find out if it's 1:1 in handling .docx like OnlyOffice which i hope it is. It sucks that OnlyOffice won't run natively on Wayland.

It's all good but I wish they increase the storage for free tier a bit more
