@protonprivacy you should release your Proton Email app via Flatpak instead of deb or rpm.

@xdanep
We wanted to support a limited amount of packaging formats for the first release, since it helps with development and testing. Adding a packaging format never comes for free and it can have unforeseen impact on parts of the application. Flatpak support will be considered as we develop the app further. Thank you for your feedback!

Can I revoke access?

You can revoke access to a link at any time, but is there a better way?

Are my files private?

@otfrom Hi! There's no API available at this time.

@protonprivacy, it would be much appreciated if the Android app had a HTML option (as in the Windows app), for a better, more readable layout.

Is this included in your development scheme?

@webol Hi! We can't share any concrete timelines for supporting rich-text mode in the mobile app at this time, but we'll add your +1 to the existing feature request to help our developers prioritize future improvements for the app. Thank you for the feedback!

@Kdude Hi! You can modify the font in your system settings, and the app will respect the global setting on your device. As an alternative, you can also zoom in the app, if some message is displayed with a small font.

We'll add your +1 to the existing request to help our developers prioritize future improvements for the app.

@Vanlen_1er Hi! Regarding the deleted messages, can you send us a screenshot of what you're referring to so we can understand your feedback better?

We don't have any timelines to share for the Android app about this particular feature, but we'll share your request with the team, to help our devs prioritize future improvements for the app.

@protonprivacy Every time I go to forward an email, the (Android) app crashes. I suspect this is because I've got thousands of contacts, but I can't confirm.

@dajb Hi! Can you please contact us via the in-app 'Report bug' option so we can investigate further? Thank you in advance.

@protonprivacy please make a flatpak build of your new desktop client for Proton Mail. It'd be great to be able to easily install it in a sandboxed environment, regardless of what Linux distribution you're running. I appreciate the deb and rpm builds, but I greatly prefer flatpaks so that I can control what parts of my systems can be accessed by the applications I run.

Is there anything unsavory about ProtonMail?

For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they’re on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google...

@Atemu Yes, that version is currently being rolled out to production.

A year and a half after moving my email to a custom domain on @protonprivacy I am finally deleting all 74,050 messages from my old Gmail account. The Proton services have definitely matured over that time and feel more stable now.

Now if only there were some way to get my Android phone to default to using Proton contacts for everything.

@ZaneSelvans Can you please contact us through the 'Report a problem' option in the Proton Drive app menu, so we can look further into this? Thanks in advance.

Very happy to see that now the Android Proton Mail app supports conversation (even if the "conversation" concept is still broken in Proton Mail in general).

That being said the update was a giant mess. It completely logged me out and I missed timely notifications for emails I was waiting for. Then there was multiple Notification called "Emails" in the Android Notification panel thus reverting my notification sound to the default one... Had to uninstall/reinstall to fix

"Data is the new oil" has become a cliche, but the surveillance economy is no trivial topic.

For this edition of the #ProtonPrivacyReadingList, we're sharing a comprehensive study into big data by Wolfie Christl and Sarah Spiekermann.

The book is "Networks of Control," you can find it here: https://www.facultas.at/verlag/rws/networks_of_control

For a quick introduction to Christl's work, check out his seminar on the consequences of the commercial use of consumer data: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nn2vP2j8Wao
