1. PRISM

@Tutanota I started my whole privacy journey when The Looming Tower miniseries premiered on Hulu back in 2018. To see the FBI and CIA fail so spectacularly to work together to stop the 9/11 attacks and save lives after all the information they had on Al-Qaeda made me question for the first time in my life: Why would we give these agencies more power over our lives?

@Tutanota Edward Snowden is a Russian asset.

@Tutanota You could literally just take a computer screen or if possible a professional grade screen like the ones used in stores that dont have trackers and Android built-in and connect a small PC to your TV, many ISPs these days offer Digital TV for example

@Tutanota I only use my TV for gaming, I don't have cable or anything like that. I hate ads

@Tutanota No I listen to BBC radio as advert free still. If They advertise Themselves I have off button. Off button is best tech not AR or VR.

@Tutanota I've forgotten what using gmail is like tbh

@Tutanota absolutely can, as long as you don't want to bring your old mails with you 😢

@Tutanota would do it in a heart beat, but I don't want to give up neither @thunderbird nor @k9mail. would really love if I could use you with both of them :blobsadreach:

@Tutanota Ain't no Legend but sure is Revolutionary! Haha.

@Tutanota Was‘n bei euch los? Erster Versuch iPhone via home WiFi. Zweiter Versuch Mac daheim. Dritter Versuch via iPad und VPN, und immer dieselbe Fehlermeldung… Alles in den letzten zwei Stunden.

@Tutanota for how long will this offer be available for? I'm on the old paid plan, thinking about switching

@Tutanota oh wow, I didn't know trans folks were involved in the making of Tutanota. Now I like you even more! 💙🩷🤍

@Tutanota awww, stoooohhhhpp! 😅 ❤️ :transgender:

@Tutanota
Replies here vs Twitter.
Massive difference....

@Tutanota I believe that a "system independent" PIN lock would be a nice option to have, just in case your device credentials have been previously compromised, rendering this system PIN/biometrics useless. Am I being too paranoid?

@Tutanota done

@Tutanota Being able to create an unlock PIN that's independent of the system PIN/pw would be appreciated (PM has this feature by the way). 😊

@Tutanota Please add more payment options, such as bank transfer or cash through the mail.

@Tutanota Thank you for supporting more than one custom domain on your Revolutionary plan. It's basically what made me switch from Protonmail.

@Tutanota ASAP if I currently have many months worth of credit on my account can I switch and how?

@Tutanota as a gay man on the left of the political spectrum, I can honestly say the surveillance state doesn’t make me feel safe. It makes me feel unsafe. Very unsafe. It’s embarrassing as an American that the EU is outpacing us in privacy preserving laws.

It’s clear that a generation of legislators who didn’t know how to use a smartphone 15 years ago allowed a small minority of that generation who did silently enact a technocratic authoritarian hegemonic police state. No shade only tea. 🍵🫖

@Tutanota
Real Hero! He sacrificed his freedom for us

@Tutanota I think Germany itself is not the problem
more so the European Union sometimes attempting big privacy interventions
e.g. chat control

@Tutanota the question is for how long still #Chatkontrolle #VDS

@Tutanota do not expect any real privacy within the 14 Eyes. Or would you like to append your take that people in Germany get *some* ***surface layer*** privacy only?

@Tutanota - “Data linked to you” and “Data used to track you” is 2 different things in Apple App Store, correct? Check Twitter’s App Privacy disclosure.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but the post speaking of zero tracking and GMail screenshot from App Store seems not relatable.

@Tutanota if Google doesn't want you around, it means you're doing something right

@Tutanota Thank you for talking about Invidious (and me indirectly)!

@Tutanota
@tio Invidious is important piece of software!

@Tutanota @techlore @thenewoil

Well worth the price. Used them for years. Popped over to proton mail for a year and now back on Tutanota for at least the next two years. Glad to be back and happy to see all the improvements that have been made in that year including offline support.

@Tutanota @techlore @thenewoil NOPE i leaved your for that so trying to rewrite why it's good will not make people like me change their mind.
Sad for you since I'm now the CSO you where at that 👌 to have a corporate subscribe (and since I do not have habit to help people I don't like).

Bad move for u (but it's not like I hinted it before reaching my actual post) but your competitor actually thanks you I guess.

@Tutanota @techlore Thanks for the shoutout! Didn't know you guys watch!

@Tutanota Ice, ice baby 👍

@Tutanota
Icecream day! :flutteryay:

@Tutanota Cute team !

@Tutanota - I am interested to know the following since the change in pricing especially from the 10 million users:
1. Numbers of users leaving your service.
2. Number of users who upgraded to new plans.
3. Number of users scaled down their usage such as storage, custom domains.
4. Number of users who increased their use of storage and custom domains which proves new plans have helped them.
5. Count of emails that are sent to Tutanota emails which are encrypted than to standard emails.

@Tutanota toll, Gratulation 👍

@Tutanota auch wenn ich eher den Schweizer Käse esse…. s
SUPER cool. Wir brauchen Lösungen die nicht Google und Microsoft sind im Productivity Bereich!

@Tutanota don't try to hard :)

@Tutanota - Please compare your offerings with Zoho Mail too. They have free forever plan for single domain, GDPR compliant, upto 5 users, 5GB storage, 25MB attachment per email limit and unlimited distribution list.

@Tutanota
Nice! Good job from you all!

@Tutanota I love when developers take the time to do things properly and then talk about it
