It'd be useful if you pointed out bugs instead of just implying that anyone who doesn't share your experience is some sort of shill

The person I was responding to literally said they were "a paying user for a very long time" and "never encountered a bug". No software is bug free. I can't think of a single software service I've used for as long as Proton (7 years now) where I haven't encountered a single issue over that time. I take their statement to be so incredibly unlikely as to be facetious or intentionally duplicitous.
So I responded in kind, because I've definitely seen company cheerleaders, and I'll have no part of it. I'm glad you all are happy with Proton. I'm not telling you to leave.
And if you really want to see complaints, you don't have to look far. Read the other comments on this thread. I don't have to spell everything out for you.
Idk what to tell you. Email is mostly a solved problem for most cases, and object storage is mostly the same. Password manager is one of the best I've found in any platform, at least for the individual-user use case.
The VPN has always just worked, too.
If you're using desktop apps for things, really can't help you there as I have no experience with any proton offerings for that piece.
Idk what to tell you. Considering email is mostly a solved problem, Proton must be extra incompetent for inadvertently deleting people's emails due to multiple different bugs in their code that took them far too long to address (multiple years in some cases).

(The temerity of the customer service response on that last one, saying they have no clue about the bug being asked about is galling, but par for the course for them).
BTW, make flippant responses, get responses in kind. Normally I'd ignore this idiocy, but today was your lucky day. Anyway, it's clear you're just a troll and I've indulged you enough.
