They mentioned Lemmy, Peertube, Organic Maps, Friendica, /e/ os, Sailfish, Linux Mint, Codeberg, Ecosia, Librewolf, Waterfox, Mastodon, Matrix and Blender!

They have 100m users, this is a massive shoutout!

All excellent recommendations too. Hats off to Proton!

Itโ€™s good to see they still have it!

Recommending /e/ OS for privacy concerns?

Recommending Mastodon after they ditched it?

Coming from Proton, with a Trump supporter CEO?

This list is so unserious.

I think we can safely assume that this Blog post was not run by their ceo and simply created by someone at Proton who thought it was a good idea
