Thanks for letting me know. I thought Proton were legit. What to use instead? I want to stop using gmail and have been migrating over to Proton thinking their privacy and encryption is solid.

Proton is somewhat ok, better than Gmail at least. And their encryption is solid, but that's just for the content. Plus when you pay for their service, they can connect your email accounts to your real name. Metadata (times, dates, recipients etc.) is not encypted. You can also have that level of encryption with any self-hosted email and PGP. Proton just makes PGP easier to use.
Better forget the idea of a secure email service, it's an old flawed service. Use encrypted chat clients instead. I do nothing sensible with email.
But if you have to https://purelymail.com/ seems very good.
Thank u sir 🙏 which encrypted chat clients?
https://simplex.chat/ , https://matrix.org/try-matrix/ or https://www.keychat.io/
If you need something like WhatsApp, then https://signal.org/ at least
Thank you for recommending Keychat.
