I have used ProtonMail and Calendar for years. The interface and functionality have improved over time.
I do pay a very modest annual fee for upgraded storage, (20G)
My primary concern was privacy and no Google.
Very happy!
What’s the opinion on Proton being owned by WEF?
How would gmail require these from people who are already users? The fast track tyranny makes me feel as though I can’t breathe....
i think it is more than just gmail- any site that requires a google account to sign in (Like google documents, google apps etc with will also be requiring face recognition too- just got a warning that now will require it-
I’ve been using Proton for years and I’m happy to pay the optional $5/month for its use. Their VPN product is also excellent although I’ve switched to AVG for its multi-product interaction.
I have been on line since late 80’s...early 90’s...never once did I use my own identity. Never allow a camera (on your current screen to be uncovered/turn off any microphone access...yahoo is a go to spam filled abc outlet but you can use it easily and for free....never type what you would’nt say in person...oh ya F eeeslam (tagline below)
I just assume that Gmail is wide open for alphabet agencies to read. If they go biometric, I’ll delete it.
I use Proton in addition to about 5 Gmail accounts. Proton has been good, yet promoting upgrades, but as long as they do not go to pay only after acquiring a vast user base like Imgur and Photobucket did, then it looks good, thank God.

I’ve been using zoho email for about 5 years it’s been stable, secure, full featured. Oddly, I have never encountered another individual with a zoho account. It is primarily focused on supporting the business world, but is free to individuals. I use zoho as my primary email and proton as my backup (that I’ve never had to use). No hassles, just good reliable email service.
I have been using Proton mail for a couple of years.
Great service and no problems.
If you take the time, you can even have Proton collect your mail from all of your other accounts, plus filter the mail for spam keywords so that you never even have to see them again.
There is a free version, but they are worth paying for.
I’ve been using fastmail for about 10 years or so, and have been very happy with it.

No problems with Proton.
Reagan.com has worked well for me for several years!
