The proton CEO praised Donald Trump's choice for who would lead the government's antitrust division, and now most of Lemmy think they're a Nazi company or something.
Just typical cancel culture bullshit. Where people choose to be outraged rather than attempting to understand a situation.
They doubled down by leaving federated services in favor of Reddit, which certainly isn't a great look imo
Yeah I agree it’s been an extreme reaction. Perfect is the enemy of good. Maybe most proton users will be willing to seek out even lesser known alternatives and even self host. But if you’re going to talk to a casual user about getting off of Gmail and then you say “Oh but not Proton” then they’re just going to stick with Gmail.
🤦 To be expected, at this point.
The loyalty the left expects from others but never gives in return is truly a sight to behold. Essentially it boils down to "agree with everything they say and if you disagree with one thing, keep it to yourself or else you're a nazi."
