    Copying an image directly into the body of an email is a pretty common workflow in this day and age. There is no need to attach an image when posting it inline is just a much nicer alternative. The issue is, on Proton there is no ability to resize the images. With Gmail you get 3 options for sizing. What's even worse is just how massive the default inline images are. They take up way too much space and to be honest it just looks really bad from a design perspective. It also makes emails difficult to read from a UX perspective.

    I noticed this was requested back in 2016. But it doesn't appear to have been addressed at all. Please consider this change because I like most aspects of Proton. But this alone makes it unusable for my workflow.

    I have been considering making the switch from Gmail to Proton. I have an account and generally like it, but this is a killer. People have been asking for this for 6 years. Cmon Proton. If you want to take some of Google's market share, being on top of adding nice QoL features like this is how you win people over. You want people to be ecstatic about your product and spread it by word of mouth right? This is how you achieve that. By adding features like this. This is rather basic functionality. Anyone who wants to use Proton for a business will need to use this feature at some point.

    Plus the images are MASSIVE. It is completely unusable in it's current state. Inline images are the future, attachments should be reserved for PDF's and the like. There is no need to attach images and have them hidden behind another click.

    The fact that you have over 200 employees and not one has addressed this is rather disappointing. What is the point of having a place for people to provide feedback if you don't even acknowledge it? It gives the impression that you don't really care and in a tech sector where there are 101 other choices that provide essentially all of the same functionality (in this case, more functionality) than you do, why should people pick Proton?
