Hey, thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm sick of one clueless idiot posting something and then a whole crowd of brainless followers jumping on the bandwagon just to smear someone's name (like what's happening with Proton and Andy Chen, for example).
Honestly, I couldn't care less if Andy was Trump’s biggest fan. Proton's track record on privacy is rock solid. I spent two years digging into Tuta, Proton, disroot, and a bunch of others until I finally settled on Proton for my family—and I've never looked back. My wife, who used to throw money at Google like it was cash to burn, finally got an email service she could actually trust. That's what matters here.
Now, I get it—Proton’s not perfect, and yeah, they're a business with their own quirks and maybe some shady stuff waiting to surface. But we need to stop blindly following one crappy post without doing our own homework.
And sure, I hate a lot about Trump (not to mention Musk, who I honestly think is even worse), but let's be real: the alternative of having Kamala Harris at the helm could’ve been a total nightmare. When I imagine her running the world's most powerful economy and military, I'm picturing a hot mess that would plunge everyone into chaos. You think you’re safe from one disastrous trainwreck, only to replace it with an even bigger one!
Trump is pure asshole material, and you could probably say that about 90% of his cabinet and most Republicans too. So yeah, if you just skim the last bit, you might think I'm a Trump supporter. But if you read the whole thing, you’ll see I'm simply saying that, given the choices, staying on this crazy rollercoaster was the lesser of two evils. We need to weigh the bigger picture rather than jump on every outrage train without doing any actual research.
It was a really stupidly worded comment on his part. If he meant Big Tech and Little Tech spwcifically rather than Big Business in general and individual people, his choice of words and the claim that the tables had "completely turned" are really unfortunate. Tagging the annoying orange directly also doesn't help make this look like it's about the pick, rather than the picker.
As an aside, forgive me if I withhold my enthusiasm until I see her actually pull something through and not just end up another way to cripple ElMo's competition.
