Nearly all of Proton's stuff uses publicly verifiable client side encryption, so idk what all this is about

It's about the server-side code. If that's not an issue then someone needs to make the argument, not throw up smokescreens about the apps and frontend code.

You're right that the encryption needs to be verifiable on the client side, but then why not share the server side code?

I mean if they did, anyone could theoretically spin up an instance, which would be good, actually.
