I didn't like Tutanota and am currently trying out Proton mail. I went through a stretch where I had not logged in to Tutanota (the site) for like 4-6 weeks (was checking from my phone mostly) and it deleted my account for inactivity...which being an encrypted, privacy focused website meant the recover process was super difficult.
Ultimately I decided they were a bit too fringe and not fully cooked yet and went with Proton Mail.
I’ve been using Tuta for over a year and regularly don’t touch the website for months at a time.
Sorry that happened to you, but just wanted to chime in that this isn’t a universal experience.
Just as likely a glitch as anything, just can't take the risk it would happen again as a main daily email personally. Glad you're experience has been different.
