Guess it's time to ditch ProtonMail as well.

Translation: "[Update Google play services.] ProtonMail won't work until you have updated Google Play Services."

I know I'm almost an anti-Google nazi at this point, but ProtonMail was one of the only remaining apps not needing Google to work, and now it's a "sin equa non" condition. I'm very disappointed. Guess I'll have to switch this address to Tutanota or host my own email server.

Edit: why the fuck would my autocorrect capitalize nazi?

    @Linuxxx I'm curious to see what you think of it. I know I'm maybe being oversensitive, but I want to hear your input on this if you don't mind.

    Same for me. Getting mails ofc but no notification 🤔
    Aaand this "message" is a fucking notification which you can't block 😂 Annoying.

    Protonmail was never an option for me as it's incompatible with normal email clients.

    @TheOct0 Well, in that case they failed to explain that well enough on their site before I registered an account somewhere else ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    In fact I looked again and their website only mentions the mobile & web apps and the difference isn't even mentioned in the advantages of the paid account.

    @deadlyRants My bad, just looked it up, and it's not the case. Don't know where I read it.

    As a paid account you're able to store your mails with some of their apps offline, maybe able to export it that way... and that's shit (only for payers)...
