> reliability of their services in recent months has

Didn't affect me at all, sure they seem to currently slowly do some major infrastructure changes and there seem to have been service interruptions, but again mail is an asynchronous "slow" communication protocol so this didn't really affect me at all and besides today I didn't even notice it.

> ridiculously slow rollout of new products

Do you buy into services because of not yet rolled out products? I at least don't and I prefer them to have a slow rollout leading to a stable product once released then a rushed rollout.

> but the amount of money I pay to host multiple domains for mail and for their VPN

I agree that their price for people with many custom domains is high, but then lets be honest most people (I know, in my experience) have sometimes a custom domain very rarely two and hardly ever more. So my guess is for most users it's reasonable priced.

I never understood why people love proton so much. I pay less for more features (e.g. catch all and calendar) with mailfence. And mailfence just seams more honest and less theater like (no cryptocurrency, no vpn, no 1000 meters if granite. Just pgp and metadata removal.)
