I moved to ProtonMail right before their CEO started mouthing off about his dipshit opinions. I still use them because it's cheaper to pay for a family plan and get a VPN, password manager, and storage along with the email. I used to pay for each of these services individually and was paying 2x what I pay now

What's the other factor though and is it worth the getting walled in?

Password manager in my opinion has to be its own thing, has nothing to do with the rest, same for VPN. I can see email, calendar and data being close together as being beneficial in every day flow. That's where Fastmail for instance draws the line I think.

If you untangle these, would the cost not be worth the benefit?

ProtonMail also does this. Someone actually told me they got an email from me and when I checked it said “this mail was AI generated”. I can’t screenshot it though. Personal reasons.
