      Do y’all know how Fastmail measures up in regards to privacy?

      I’m happy with the service, but I don’t know how it compares in this particular domain, compared to the likes of Proton, Tuta, et al.

        +Encrypted storage & transit (TLS 1.3, Perfect Forward Secrecy).

        +No ads, no data selling – user-funded.

        +2FA & Passkey support for added security.

        -No built-in end-to-end encryption (E2EE) – requires third-party PGP/S/MIME.

        Good for privacy, but jurisdiction risks & lack of E2EE make alternatives like tuta (or proton) a better choice.
