The biggest success of Proton really does seem to be it's ability to remain private and avoid public investment and venture capital. The minute a project, group, or service starts to go public is the minute stuff starts to degrade. I cannot think, at the top of my head, a company that has been able to sustainably innovate, or do something different, when venture capital is in the mix. Super cool to see Yen point this out.

it's also why anyone with good sense doesn't trust Proton. It's impossible to believe that money and the political influence it buys doesn't threaten to undermine or even have created such a 'safe alternative'. That said, for free email I still think proton is the best option. But i just wouldn't trust them if i was doing anything important or of interest to powerful people and governments. I'm not that interesting though, and probably no one reading this is, so it's fine.

Here's a minor point that might interest a few people: At 1:03:21 in this video, the question comes up "Does end-to-end encryption matter if the recipient doesn't have an encrypted solution?". The discussion for that describes what benefits there are when a Proton user is exchanging emails with someone who is not a Proton user, but that isn't quite the same topic as what the question asked. While doing some testing today, I sent a message from my main Proton email to an account I have on another email provider. I was surprised to see that Proton noticed that the destination email address had a PGP key, and it automatically PGP-signed and encrypted the email sent to that non-Proton account. Now I know how hard it can be to setup PGP on most accounts, but if someone *DOES* go through the trouble of doing that then they have an "encrypted solution" even though their account is not provided by Proton. I do realize that most people won't go through the pain of setting up a PGP key, but at least Proton does do the right thing for the people who go through that.

Andy is pretty cool guy! I like his train on thought for the most of the stuff. However, as a Linux user who pays for the most expensive plan I would argue on the point that there's less audience for native Proton Drive app for Linux. It can be a survivorship bias (see wiki for the term). In reality Linux users are ones who care about privacy more than inhabitants of other platforms. So, maybe there's not much demand for PDrive among Linux users because there's no native app? Yeah, there's rclone available with PDrive beta support and it is actually working, but noting can compete with native client when it comes to terabytes of data with multiple (more than 5) devices that need to be in sync, which is my case. It would be great if Andy sees this comment and reacts to it in the follow up video 🙂 Thanks for the interview!

Hey Nick, great video as always appreciate you gave Andy the room to speak as I know it can be tempting to be active when discussing a topic you're knowledgeable and passionate about, but I always prefer when the interviewees are really given that space to speak. Andy seemed like a very knowledgeable and genuine guy with his finger on the communities pulse. Fair play to him for doing the interview. My biggest concern with proton is they will become a victim of their own sucess and if they create an ecosystem that truly rivals that of the big tech giants will be at risk of a change of leadership or a life changing acquisition offer turning them into what they're trying to destroy. For features my personal list is: All apps on F-Droid, a separate notes app with a robust import feature (just clone Google keep, I just can't ditch it atm) and small, but please roll out material themed icons on android. Proton apps stick out like a sore thumb atm!

51:18 Element literally does this. No separate version of the app is needed. You get to choose which notification backend to use in the settings whether it's ntfy, play services, or running in the background. Obviously the last one uses more battery, but ntfy isn't any different from play services like what he seems to think. I think what happened is he tested ntfy battery usage while play services were already running and deduced that it uses more batter when it doesn't (because it doesn't collect your data in the background).

This was really great dude, thanks for doing this interview, gives me more confidence in Proton. Glad to hear Andy said they are slow because they have to be careful, I fully respect that. I often go back and forth between Windows and Arch simply because I get annoyed having to always edit or manipulate some config file in Arch in order to make it just work. This is a huge headache for me. One of the worst issues right now from a user experience perspective on laptops is that the fucking laptop scrolling speed is neckbreaking on most laptops with the latest version of Gnome on Wayland. This is an utter disaster for the Linux space in terms of noobs getting into Linux. On Arch I can make it buttery smooth for myself, but most people wont waste their time if even the most basic of functions don't work properly on the most popular distros etc. I really wish Linux would get their shit together as a whole, it's doing the space a disservice, and I definitely don't blame Proton for their not being apps on Linux as of yet.

Nick, you are amazing. Proton sounds promising. Should have joined the question list :( I'll be more alert next time. Quesions: 1. I understand the need to create a trusted VPN service, still would you consider splitting Proton.VPN to a new companey with a new name? I ask, because currently you might update the VPNService at the expense of the EMail Service - Split Loyelty between EMail focused users and VPN focused users. 2. How do you feel about team-play between companies? I imagine no company can stand alone, delivery companies, hw manufacuterers and support for the hw any company is using ... So, I just feel the sceme of other companies tied with Proton is segnificant and worth talking about. How do you handle a state with no good partners? or parteners alligned to your service ideals, You can't always build the company you want to use. 3. When a new company brings to market new tech, do you feel the authorities responsible for gaurding the community's wellfare should be responsible for fast adaptation of that tech? or is it the responsibility of the new company to standarties and assist the authorities that inforce the standards?

Question: If you using Protonmail send to a Gmail user, or visa versa, what happens to your encryption and security then? And privacy for that matter?

Woud like to know this too. People say that this whole encryption is only working between proton mail accounts and emails by itself will never be private

As a current, paying Proton Mail & VPN user, I would LOVE to have a streamlined all in one app on my Steam Deck(Arch Linux). Something that's easy to navigate with a controller, and focuses on features relevant to mobile gaming/computing. VPN, browser, cloud storage, etc.

Awesome interview. I really think they should look deeper into the Flatpak technology for Linux. Its come a long way can even do network stacks and access to your file directory systems and they can build to one standard and make it awesome

I pay for proton and enjoy its benefits. I do wish that Proton would integrate only office or nextcloud in their services so that I can operate in the Proton services like I do at work with MS 365.

It'd be cool for them to pledge to support rclone for proton drive. I feel like a pretty technical person, but I haven't been able to get rclone mount working with proton drive yet :(. A proton drive gui for Linux makes sense too, esp for people with proton family plans, but it'd be neat to have first-class rclone support

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a CEO of a company get grilled as much as Andy does about his company. At least none that come to mind right off the top of my head. This is like the third or fourth interview that I have watched this guy seems to love the hot seat, but I absolutely love proton and love the leadership that company is under and the community aspect of the company where the community is the boss I also love Andy and his honesty especially the part of the interview where he says I’m going to be honest because I’m a scientist and I can’t help it. That one cracked me up.
