mhoyeIf you rely on Bitwarden, they've changed leadership and are now on the PE extract-and-exit track. Start working on your backup/exit strategy as soon as you reasonably can.
Thaddée Tyl@mhoye What is the best non-self-hosted option? 1Password?
The Orange Theme@espadrine @mhoye 1Password is all in on slop, unfortunately.
jokeyrhyme@theorangetheme @espadrine @mhoye
great, so Proton has a MAGA CEO, Bitwarden has PE, and 1Password is slop
guess I just need to keep working down the list
‘Leigh 🏳️⚧️✊@jokeyrhyme I don’t know anything about the author of this article (and you presumably don’t know anything about me either) so take that into consideration and be skeptical if you deem it appropriate, but there’s apparently good evidence that Proton’s CEO is _not_ MAGA. Phew.
@leigh well, the broader picture is definitely better
but it was the "today the tables have completely turned" comment made there that concerned me, as that seemed like unnecessary flattery / sycophancy and not an especially accurate assessment
i mean, both parties are firmly USA imperialist and capitalist, so there's a limit to how much better one party can be over the other party in most aspects
and sure, we did see some antitrust moves against Google and Facebook, but these seemed more about finding some way to punish them for alleged censorship of conservative views online, and instead of breaking up monopolies we ended up with drastically reduced moderation of hate speech
but i retract my "Proton CEO is MAGA" assertion, the bigger picture doesn't demonstrate a commitment to that dogma, this does seem more like a poorly-worded or insufficiently-detailed "hooray for seeming to be less stupid than usual" post 🤷
@jokeyrhyme I *strongly* agree with you on these points! :)
@leigh gosh, Proton again, eek

@[email protected] It looks to me like Lapierre joined Proton's 'influencers' programme (https://proton.me/partners). The most charitable interpretation is that Proton perform no real vetting on the 'influencers' who apply and are unaware of their content. That charitable interpretation is bad enough. The less charitable interpretations, of course, are that Proton don't care about or even endorse their content. Needless to say, even the most charitable interpretation is unacceptable.
