Andy should step down
There was an issue with 3000+ votes for Andy Stepping down.
It was the most upvoted UserVoice issue, but now it's gone. Here is the archive.org link: https://web.archive.org/web/20261031004517/https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/51867423-andy-yen-steps-aside
Where is it now? Do we have to agentically flood UserVoice or you gonna keep the issue up?
In any case:
Andy is an AI-pilled douche scumbag
Proton users choose Proton because it was perceived as less douchebagy than Big Tech. No longer.
If you want your users' trust back, the only thing you can do is fire the CTO and the CEO.
If this post goes down, I guarantee you it will come back again 1000s of times again.

Andy, you found the only way to ***** up.
If proton announced: ""no more new features, only security updates. Also, the price is double."" I would STILL be giving them money until I died.Now, I instead have NO security guarantees, NO confidence in the products and NO good feelings about the employees building the product being treated fairly.
You need to leave Proton before you sink it.

Why would they remove the previous top rated post about this, just like those Reddit 'employees' posting in defense of this ****, a blatant whitewashing campaign, seen enough over the last 2 weeks, time to cancel my subscription.

I canceled my subscrition today and moved my domains to another provider. I no longer trust Proton. I sent the Proton Foundation and email today as well, explaining in very clear terms *exactly* why I left and why his name is Andy.
Whoever mods these boards, do better. Maybe think about why this is getting so much attention.

I've already cancelled my subscription, and this just - yet again - confirms that Proton is dead.
**** Andy Yen, and **** Proton -

I have been a CEO and a dishwasher, in a number of types of organisations. Andy Yen and his CTO's behaviour and what I conclude is the culture they have created at Proton the company, is not acceptable. Andy and the senior team should find other jobs, resign from the board. I will be basing my renewal decision entirely on whether they are gone, and they should be gone within weeks.
