>nothing else

Why should I bother switching when all I'm going to be doing with it is muh steam gaymes?

>heavy dependence on javascript

>depends on javascript to encrypt emails

How about no.

>>545225

Going back to >>>/v/

Obviously.

>>545226

What do you have against javascript? I mean aside from the byzantine stupidities of the language?

>>545226

What would you recommend, anon?

>>545229

Not that anon, but JS is known to leak information.

>>545229

You have to be insane to let someone encrypt your emails for you, not only that but let some someone encrypt your emails using javascript. The whole automatically-encrypt-your-email-with-javascript trend needs to stop because it's very insecure. It isn't hard to do

 gpg --armor --encrypt 

As this anon said >>545232 I also don't like javascript because it can be used to fingerprint you, although I doubt ProtonMail is doing that.

>proxied trough israel

>app requires google botnet services

Useless when used with non-protonmail services

And, as >>545226 said, uses JavaScript to encrypt emails. The code is delivered through your browser, which makes it extremely hard to check if the web client actually does what you ask it to do. It may occasionally receive the implementation that does not encrypt your message and there's no way to monitor that reliably.

>>545230

Just use pgp/gpg

>>545252

>>545238

Just fuck EcmaShit and encrypt email outside the browzer.

Any faggot here use SIGAINT?

i can't log in without enabling javascript either, and apparently it needs cookie as well

>>545170

>based in swizerland

You say that like it means anything.

>>545225

so when you grow up and you need a big boy email for work and the like.

Or you can just use a real mail client and GPG like somebody who's not retarded.

Isn't ProtonMail controlled by Jews now? After that last DDoS.

>can't be used outside of browser or phone.

Made an address there just in case, but I doubt I'll use it much.

is there a way to get the app without going thru google services?

https://www.ghostmail.com/

There is also Ghostmail

Also based in Switzerland.

And yes based in Switzerland does mean something, it's one of the few european countries that don't get cucked.

>no IMAP support

>What do you think /tech/?

I think it's unusable shit.

Support standards, not services.

>>545954

I'll support you're mom, with my dick.

>>545651

>>545651

is SIGAINT SECURE???!?!!?!?!?!?!?

>>545170

>Not using totanota

Now what's the advantages of this compared to, say, Cock.Li for my private trash email needs?

Well, besides the fact that Cock.Li got fucked by the German Thought Police

>Cock.Li got fucked by the German Thought Police

Wut?

>>548460

They had their hard drives seized man, it was big news a couple months back. He's working on getting them back but a lot of people lost their accounts and he's saying even when the drives come back they won't be restored.

>>545679

Yes.

>>545677

This.

the app is garbage, it saves your account so you auto-login if you dont manually sign out which completely negates the fucking point. In the 30 or so seconds I looked at it I couldnt find any option to log you out automatically
