I don't think he use all those services. If you want storages with like > 1 TB you'll probably want to set up your own NAS and make back ups. Currently I use StartMail, 30GB storage and if you ask my personal list I should say use them for their disposable email service if that is what you're looking for. If you don't bother having disposable emails I suggest go for Tuta/StartMail. Tuta has a friendly userface and 500GB storage, while StartMail has less storage but more options.

I always send encrypted emails to friends and family. For secure communication, I use PGP or services like StartMail that support encrypted email. It’s simple and effective as it ensures only the intended recipient can read the message. When I first started using encryption, I’d share my public key with people directly, and they’d send me encrypted emails using that. Now it's become second nature and I encourage others to do the same. It might seem a bit inconvenient at first, but if more people start using encryption, it’ll become a normal part of email communication.

Sounds obvious. Didn't think about that, focused too much on privacy related reasons haha. > markva

So this means if you want to search for a video on YouTube in a few years, you get AI results and no longer user generated content? So they are stepping away of monetization for creators, because data is much more valuable to them?

Wondering why nobody is talking about StartMail. StartMail provides encrypted email services, including PGP encryption for secure communication, and the option to send password-protected emails to non-users. It also offers unlimited disposable email aliases to protect your primary email address and avoids tracking or profiling users.

As for ProtonPass, I’ve thought about it too, but so far I’m happy with my current setup, including Bitwarden for passwords and StartMail for email. I appreciate Proton's focus on privacy, but for me, using different providers (like StartMail + Bitwarden) adds an extra layer of security in case something goes wrong with one of them. StartMail, for example, is a strong alternative to Gmail with its focus on privacy, while Bitwarden is excellent for password management due to its open-source nature and transparency.
