I ditched Google Workspace for Proton earlier this year and haven't looked back. Yes, the Proton apps don't integrate with everything and E2E encrypted data isn't as accessible as the data held in Google apps, but that's a bonus at this point.
The way everyone gets so up-in-arms about the political views of a person three levels detached from the company is insane.
"Oh no, an individual with different views than me offhandedly mentioned Proton, the horror! I can't possibly differentiate between the views of a company and a separate individual!
Let's go grandstand about canceling our service and discouraging others from signing up because a random person thinks differently than me, and talked about the company."
It also can purely be choosing to not support an organization that doesn’t align with your world view. The money in our pockets is the power to change things.
