I'm happy to see this announcement. However, just transitioning to a non-profit does not make an organization good. They can still be greedy and take advantage of their user base. That being said, it seems Proton's mission statement resonates with a non-profit type structure. When you are accountable to the shareholders, they become the priority.
Yes Mozilla is a good example. They're run like any other Silicon Valley company and spend more in C-suite develop their damn product.
Bad example. There are plenty of non-profit FOSS services that do well and serve the community.
