Because running PGP software and handling key management locally is way easier than double-clicking on an installer? I don't concede that for a second. Remember that the alternative you want is ciphertext directly via IMAP, which is not at all user-friendly, which is exactly why we didn't do it.

As for the bridge, that is exactly what we'd like to do, as I've said before.

And customer support time and developer time devoted to this would cost money and represents an opportunity cost as well and that's a fact, not a point to be conceded.

I said even if I concede, I didn't expect you to.

And like I've said before, what you'd like to do and what you are doing are different. Nothing stops you from open sourcing it today. Put in comments that the APIs you use are not officially supported if you must. Open source it! It should have been open source a year ago! Open source it!

And you give me all your money. Give me All Your Money!

Some people are just like that :)

Great product, Proton team, thanks.
