I was a privacy officer for a company that decided to go with Zoom to move adult education on line as the first corona lockdowns took effect, and I spent several very intense months (and sleepless nights) in the middle of the mess that was Zoom and (separately) the debate about Zoom's (lack of) security.
Zoom was indeed heavily (and rightly) criticised for its poor default settings and its selling of "end to end" encryption that wasn't actually end to end.
The company I was with at the time provides internal management-level training to companies and open programs which provides a safe space (Chatham House Rules) for discussing students' experiences within their own companies. Some of our students' employees outright blocked access to Zoom on the students' corporate laptops. It was a shitshow.
That was 2020. That is not 2025. I have read the independent audit reports of Zoom's infrastructure. We have had a team of IT auditors review both Zoom's privacy and security posture, as well as the way it was configured for the company I was with. Conclusion: Zoom is as secure and private as other industry solutions (Teams, Google Meet).
There are certainly more privacy-first and tightly secured solutions on offer, and it would be great to have one of those be the default for creating a new video call.
Excluding commonly used video call options, however, would absolutely limit the usefulness of Proton Calendar. It also goes beyond what we use Proton for: to keep data we put in Proton safe.
Saying that Proton should have an opinion about which video call solution to accept is like saying that Proton should refuse to send e-mails out to any non-secure and/or non-privacy-first e-mail provider (e.g. Gmail, MS 365).

The only way proton can "force" other services to display an image, by web standards, is by using BIMI. However, the BIMI image is displayed for the e-mail domain, not the individual user.
In short:
- if you need this for your business, get yourself a domain name, e.g. @johndoe.com, use proton mail to send from that domain, and set up BIMI.
- if you want this for personal use, put your profile picture everywhere profile pictures are published (gravatar, openID, etc.), associate those with your proton mail account, and hope for the receiving e-mail client to display the image.For specific receivers, you can work around the issue, for example:
- Gmail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb2U5EXO_Eo
- Outlook/Microsoft: sorry, no dice https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/1fty4gs/microsoft_outlook_photos_visible_to_external_users/?rdt=59283 -

A very specific use case:
I have an alias that I want to delete. When I try to delete it, I get the message "Address cannot be deleted while messages associated with this address exist". I'd really like to be able to find those messages and delete them.
