Don’t move accounts straight away. They ban people with no appeal in the first couple of days if account is sniffed as suspicious. Also 6 months inactivity gets you deleted

Literally the first I’m hearing of Tuta.
Are they legit?

A Canadian law enforcement member accused them of being a honeypot. They’ve denied it. You’ll have to make up your own mind.

It’s not perfect, but I chose them over proton because I was able to get my first.last name. I haven’t had any issues so far over the last few years.
One of the biggest things is you have to use their client, no 3rd party clients like thunderbird.

They’re legit and I’ve been on their paid plan for a few months now. I don’t like the UX of their app. Often feels slow and laggy and outdated. Probably will switch to Proton or something else when my 1 year plan ends.

Proton has almost the same feel and layout.

I’ve actually been using Proton (on the free plan) for a couple of years before going to Tuta on their paid plan. I can say that the UI of Proton feels much better.
- The search in Tuta’s inbox often gives no result despite me searching exactly what’s in the subject line
- The custom notification selector in Tuta Calendar sucks
- Tuta Calendar feels sluggish
- You can’t select whether to send a message as plain text or as HTML in the message composer?? Why do you have to go into the preference page to change this??
- When you open a message in Tuta Mail, it often fails loading the message and I have to press Retry multiple times for it to load the message properly
As far as I remember, none of these were problems back when I used Proton.

You probably already know this but you have to expand the dates of your search because it saves the email content securely on your hard drive before searching.
There are some quirks to get used to on both but neither are off-putting.
I don’t like the scrolling on either and think the message box defaults too small sharing space with too much other stuff. But it’s the same in both platforms.

Yes. No issues.

They made this pretty sweet advertisement!
