Summary

Proton Mail, known for its privacy-first email services, faced backlash after CEO Andy Yen praised the Republican Party and its antitrust stance.

The company initially posted and deleted a statement supporting Yen’s comments, later claiming an “internal miscommunication” and reiterating its political neutrality.

Critics question Proton’s impartiality, particularly as it cooperates with Swiss authorities on legal data requests.

Privacy advocates warn that political alignments could undermine trust, especially for Proton’s users—journalists and activists wary of government surveillance under administrations like Trump’s.

I only found out since I used standard notes before the ownership thing, I suppose I'm gonna have to look for a syncing note taking service again.

it's worth some consideration I suppose. so long as it's not too resource intensive, it could be good to spin it up on my vps space

Provided you're not in need of fully fledged powerpoints, it would be fine to run them w/ little to no resources allocated to it. It just depends on your use-case, I suggest doing a backup of some sort and try out the various options. Unless you're setup allows you to freely try them all out in which case go nuts

I suppose I'll look for a decent service (maybe with spreadsheet support this time) and try to spin something up next week

Ah in that case you may want to look into paperless-ngx in the Document Management section:
