For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they're on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google libraries or whatever that they use.

ProtonMail users, how do you like/dislike it?

I don't like that their open-source repositories, like the android mail app, disabled public issues. Normally lots of good information can be found in issues, like known bugs or reasons why a tracker still exists in the app.

Oh? When did that happen?

I checked a few other repos and it appears the android app is the only repo where this was done.

Hey @protonprivacy@mastodon.social, why were issues disabled on https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-mail-android?

@Atemu @RedNight Note that our new, rewritten app is still in beta, not released to all of our users. Once it is, the code will be shared.

Thanks for the answer :)

Google play appears to be delivering the 4.0.6 (8308) update to me already, is that intended?

[–] protonprivacy@mastodon.social 2 points 7 months ago

@Atemu Yes, that version is currently being rolled out to production.
