I mean, what else does anyone expect? The company which makes my cast iron skillet, which I love, writes blog posts about recipes for cast iron skillets, and always adds links to their products.
they’re using a free platform to post and advertisement
corporations need to stay out of sites like this
So they didn’t actually post anything here and normal people are posting the article themselves, which is exactly what you said you think should happen.
I mean I totally understood why they chose to give themselves an advertisement but I would still like it if they gave alternatives like tutanota, anon addy, mullvad. Even with those good alternatives, I still go with proton because the unlimited plan is pretty fair and I like the cohesiveness of everything.
There’s Standard Notes and SimpleLogin too. That’s 2/5. But my point was rather that it’s shit on their own site, I don’t think they’re pretending it’s anything other than advert.

Why is it trash for a business to write articles about how they’re beneficial to you and how to use them?

testeronious is Proton’s official Lemmy account?
No. The team have official handles and ourselves, Volunteer mods, as in reddit. But that user is just a user AFAIK.

I mean, standard notes at least is not one of their products.
Thinly veiled? The link is proton.me lol

Oh, I didn’t know that. Do they also own Standard Notes?

No, it’s not. An awesome product BTW, IMHO.
