He never asked about switching the provider, just an app to handle his Gmail correspondence due to poor interface. Truth is that everyone should switch to ProtonMail promptly but just pointing out that it isnt the answer to his question.
I’ve used FastMail happily for 4 years now. I truly appreciate the web interface and I use Thunderbird when I need to send encrypted emails.
Price comparison:
Fastmail: $5x12 = $60/year
ProtonMail: €48 = $51/year
FastMail is 30GB, custom domain, infinite aliases
ProtonMail is 5GB, custom domain, 5 aliases.
For someone who uses IMAP and creates aliases when signing up / for filtering rules, as alternative to Google’s +addresses, FastMail looks like a better choice on the surface.
Can you convince me that ProtonMail is so much a better choice? Privacy matters to me, too.
Personally I dont feel comfortable with any service hosted in the US or other Five Eyes country. I have nothing to hide but the spying and intrusion is nearly as bad as China or Russia.
