That's positive indeed. After Signal, maybe it's time we all add PQC to our ssh, HTTPS, etc.

In fact if you are wondering OpenSSL supports PQC since 3.5 the current LTS and Debian stable relies on it https://packages.debian.org/stable/openssl

So... you might already be PQC-ready. In fact if you also run Debian on your server (or its exposed containers) maybe you connected over HTTPS already in a PQC-ready compliant fashion.

Finally, some good news from proton.

What's the consensus about Proton in here?

I use it. It's fine. Any paid email provider is fine really.

I'm staying a free user though because I don't want to get my account deleted if I fail to pay for 6 months due to being in a coma or ICE detention or wrongfully arrested or rightfully arrested.

Many say its really bad because they are complying with subpoeanas, but email itself is most often not encrypted anyway

But if youre using your acc for stuff that needs actual opsec, use something else

I personally prefer fastmail tho

I have a paid tier. I like it. Beats the shit outta the big G.

I pay for it b/c running privacy focused services is not free. I want a world where we have choices besides Big Surveilence Tech. I could get by with the free tier. I pay anyway.

If you send to other proton addresses, or to other co's with compatible encryption, it can make email E2EE. Otherwise, it's not, like if the other end is on a gmail address or w/e.

It doesn't 100% solve the probs. But it doesn't do G style spying of your email contents. That's worth supporting to me.
