Alright, y'all were right, fuck Proton. This was the last straw for me. (thelemmy.club)

For context, in my password manager I had tried formatting some of my entrees so that it would contain the usual username and password, but instead of creating whole new entrees for the security questions for the same account, I just added additional fields in the same entree in order to keep things a little more tidy.

I was not expecting that doing so would result in later being shaken down by Proton to pay even more money just to access the same few bytes of fucking text I had trusted them with. This is sleazy as fuck and I am dropping these idiots entirely.

you say just below this that I never paid for anything in the first place?

Excuse me, let me correct myself: That's what you're not paying for. Better? Does that make you anymore correct?

Why would I pay for Proton over the free Keepass if Proton is basically ransomware?

KeePass is local storage. It's not managed. But by all means, If you don't see the value, use KeePass. Not sure what you're complaining here for.

I was paying for it

Okay, so you stopped paying for it. That's why you can no longer access it. You can still export your data and import it into KeePass. So go do it.

You rn:

  1. Proton is most certainly not a multi-billion dollar corporation, moron.
  2. Your argument suggest that corporations aren't possibly able to hold a valid argument. I'm not siding with the corporations, I'm siding with basic logic and reason. It's not complicated. You are not entitled to anything they offer if you don't pay for it.
