Andy Yen's values are incompatible with Proton's mission. He advocates for poor security practices, supports fascists, and he verbally abuses his subordinates. As such, I can no longer in good conscience continue to financially support a company with such terrible leadership.

Unfortunately for me, my subscription just renewed last month on a multi year plan, but it does give me time to browse for and experiment with alternatives.

If you're able, I encourage you to do the same and cite Andy Yen as the driving factor for your decision. We can't let these tech bro fascists destroy what little semblance of privacy we have left.

I don't necessarily want email and calendar bound either... I was just trying to use it to get off Google.

After commenting here I went and found a enhancement request re: the same issue and left disappointed comments. https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/discussions/3067. Unexpectedly, they closed the issue and explained that it's been fixed for a while. I posted a screenshot to show no custom options were available and they explained the drop down was scrollable and there were more options if I scrolled down. There's no UI element to even hint that it's scrollable on mobile or desktop, but I was happy to learn it's an option.
