  I get the thought process from a market standpoint, but this is a trap we all fall into because the big services subsidize subsidize subsidize to keep you locked in. If you want 15gb free, you sell your privacy. That’s the equation, not “service a and b are equivalent except more gbs”.

    i am not comparing their storage with gmail, i just think 500 mb might be little less. i love proton for what it is, but i can’t continue using their services if the limit hits.

      Agreed there may be a middle ground somewhere. 1 GB in 2024 feels pretty light given I just bought 36 tb for the same price a cheap tablet…it’s just never gonna be parity.

  I wish they could provide more storage for paid users, or allow users to a la carte add storage. $4/mo to merely match Gmail’s 15GB feels a bit steep, and it must be feasible for them to offer their mail service with 100GB+ for $5/mo.
