I’ve thinking about purchasing Proton Mail Plus only and just only to have IMAP support, but I’ve looked all the features that the Proton Unlimited Plan have, and honestly I believe it’s worth, but I hate having all the eggs in the same basket.

The features I believe worth the most are the 500GB storage, IMAP support, all the VPN servers with P2P and unlimited SimpleLogin aliases, but when I ask if it is worth the price I mean, the majority of those features I can have them having individually with others services and even at lower price.

    My oldest email account is from late 2008 and I’ve used a grand total of 2.04GB. I say this just to demonstrate how much storage email really needs.

    Proton Unlimited - $120/yr, comes with:

    • 500 GB storage
    • 15 email addresses
    • 3 custom email domains
    • VPN
    • ProtonPass

    Alternatives:

    Email: Fastmail: $60/yr

    • 50 GB of storage
    • 600 aliases
    • 100 domains
    • Included static site web hosting

    Storage:

    • Wasabi: $7/TB/Mo and more flexible since it’s S3 and there are tons of tools for S3.

    Password manager:

    • Bitwarden: $10/yr

    The only one I have trouble with is VPN. A while back I would have said Mullvad but unfortunately they don’t do port forwarding anymore so not so great for P2P.

    I think it’s worth it.

    1. The simplelogin integration with protonmail is pretty cool, they even allow you to share PGP key with your proton email and simplelogin account so every forwarded mail is encrypted.

    2. The proton drive is pretty sweet, though, I haven’t used much of it. I suspect I will be using more of it once there’s a native Linux app, but, the web interface is still pretty fast and clean.

    3. Proton calendar works well and I use it a lot

    4. Protonvpn I use on all my devices with no problem, even at school which they try to block

    5. Protonmail, works as you would expect so not much to say about that.

    6. They genuinely care about the community and want to know your thoughts. The ceo himself stated something along the lines of the subscribers dictate which direction to take the company because there are no shareholders and there are no VCs.

    I have no qualms. I primarily use mail and VPN. I also use drive as a secondary backup of a handful of important things.
