If you are interested in privacy you are probably interested in password storage ... plus I wanted everyone to know about the inevitable future enshitification of this product. Spread the word and replacement recommendations are welcome too.

I have nothing but good things to say about Proton Pass. Syncs across iOS, macos, PC & Linux, stores not just usernames & passwords, but short notes, product keys, & can generate temporary email addresses that can be disabled when they start receiving spam

Nothing is stopping Proton from doing the same thing next week. And seeing how many people lock themselves in to Proton (by using all their services, Apple style), they have a strong incentive to also do some "restructuring" and spike prices.

Howdy, I work at Proton, this is incorrect: https://proton.me/blog/proton-non-profit-foundation

A nonprofit is the largest voting shareholder of Proton.

Okay, so? OpenAI is also controlled by a Non-Profit (Similar Structure to Proton, I suppose). That doesn't stop them from being scummy. Please explain your point.
