Summary

Proton Mail, known for its privacy-first email services, faced backlash after CEO Andy Yen praised the Republican Party and its antitrust stance.

The company initially posted and deleted a statement supporting Yen’s comments, later claiming an “internal miscommunication” and reiterating its political neutrality.

Critics question Proton’s impartiality, particularly as it cooperates with Swiss authorities on legal data requests.

Privacy advocates warn that political alignments could undermine trust, especially for Proton’s users—journalists and activists wary of government surveillance under administrations like Trump’s.

I have one custom domain email that used to be self hosted. I got so much spam which is what pushed me to move it to Google Suite like 8 years ago. It solved the problem, but now I’m scared to move it back. Is there a better way to deal with spam on self hosted options now?

You could completely host it yourself (like running all the software) and use a spamfilter.
Not sure how @Tutanota handles spam on custom domains or use the domain via #addyio that's how I do it and it rocks (for me).
