Download BitWarden and be done with it.

Dude, jfc calm down. You pay a little money to get premium services, instead of them monetizing user data. This is the way the world works with paid software, except they're not making money on your data and you, just you.

Maybe some context in what exactly you pay for would help too. I'm assuming you pay for a base tier of mail, bc I use their password manager too but pay for the full suite, and don't have this issue.

Maybe also a chat with support might find this to be an unexpected bug, but instead you're coming to Lemmy to the echo chamber of hate on proton which won't help.

KeepassXC + Syncthing has worked fine for me for a few years. Sure, it's a bit of a hassle and not exactly perfect, but nothing is. I have control over my data and I don't have to pay anyone anything, that's enough for me.

Also, tasty entrees 🤤

I tried protonmail not for the privacy purpose but just to have a normal web email client.

After wasting an hour before finding out you can't disable the "sent from protonmail" footer without manually deleting it in each draft you make, I said screw it and deployed my own email server with stalwart lol.

It's receive only because outgoing SMTP is a pain to make reliable these days and my ISP blocks outgoing SMTP anyway, but for everything else I now use Thunderbird.

shaken down by Proton to pay even more money

What are you paying for currently?

I know someone that signed up for an account with them, they froze it immediately for suspicious activity. He does nothing with that IP address, reads, social media, that's it. No way to get off the shit list without giving up personal information like a phone number and or alternate email and no guarentee that would fix it.

Their IP was on a blacklist from some shady company for some strange reason. But other companies let you write the company and plead your case, proton does not.

They further suspended a bunch of accounts based on some half baked unproven accusations by the government(s) if I recall.

They aren't trustworthy, they will give you up at the first sign of friction it appears.

Bitwarden offers this feature for free using custom fields, although 2FA is paid unless you self-host IIRC

OMG I thought I was the only child of Mr and Mrs Upgrade, of Upgrade street, Upgrade! Maybe we're related?

Howdy. For the clarity of users such as myself, can you please clarify which "Proton" you're referring to.

Pretty sure the warning signs were apparent when the CEO submitted to Trump. it just his "personal beliefs" and not representative of the company. Right.

Bitwarden ! Host it yourself.

??? I use Proton mail and I never saw something like this. Account with nick, other mail, password and go.

What tier do you pay for now? Did you ever downgrade your tier?

Can you still access the info by hitting edit? It was possible last time I checked. Even so, yeah, I'm thinking a transition to bitwarden is not a bad idea.
