While I agree with this sentiment on the surface, using a privacy focused application that was built by folks who yield to cops as part of their identity doesn’t inspire long term viability in that space.

It’s the same reason I moved away from Proton when their CEO told us all where his values lie. It’s not outright backtracking on privacy promises but with so many comparable alternatives in this space, why chance it with the bootlickers?

What’s the rush on appreciating their patience so soon? You don’t have to do it day one. It’s not going anywhere and you can appreciate older patiences in the meantime.
