    Cons
    Proton
    • Exporting email (which I like to do for archiving) is awkward and slow.
    • Proton Mail Bridge (which allows access from other email readers like Outlook) sometimes has synchronization issues. Lately these just resolve themselves.

    Usability
    Proton
    Mostly intuitive and easy to use. A bit harder if you stick with two passwords (one for the account and one for the encryption).

    Proton had a wider offering of products like vpn and drive. I ended up paying for a yearly subscription, I liked it so much.
