Keep the flame. Most are compromised, mentally stunted, and entirely self-servicing. Its not always possible to figure out what the "reasons" for their compromise are. Sadly as a species that tends toward organizing as a means to capture power/influence to maximize likelihood of more expedient access to finite resources to ultimately achieve self-actualization and comfort, the behaviors that have been, will always be.

It's impossible to disclose an opinion these days without instantly dividing people. Drama aside, I actually moved out of proton mail two years back to self hosted for my family. 99% of our emails were incoming, and in the other 1%, most of our mails weren't actually to proton accounts but to gmail/outlook, so end to end encryption rarely applied to emails (assumption is that anything sent to these accounts is already compromised). Between us, we use a self hosted matrix instance for day to day communication, so email doesn't matter.

That's the right approach. Email is just bad and can't be fixed. Almost anything else is better than email except for SMS.

You ARE making things better. That's why we support you. Keep citing your sources and making your points. No one that I know of does what you do the way you do it. I have been close to throwing in the towel on efforts towards preserving what little privacy and security I do have, but you always remind me why it matters.
