Sure. I'm not sure what case you're trying to make. Lack of competition does not mean there is no place for criticism, if the service works for you by all means you should use them if that's the best decision for yourself. These are just my reasons for avoiding a product like Proton Pass from this particular company and why I will migrate away and would not recommend them for users who might be similar to myself.

Fair enough;

By the way, regarding #2, are you aware you can use aliases with SimpleLogin if you have a Proton subscription? (Unlimited aliases, also with your own domain.)

I hadn't! I just gave it a shot and it seems sadly it suffers from the same problem. If I try and reply to an email received via SimpleLogin, it leaks my real email address (no option to reply as the receiving address), protonmail-bridge rejects it as a sender as well same as a catch all reply. Unfortunate.

Edit: Seems there is a reverse alias option, and seems to work well, will give it an honest go before migrating, thanks for the tip.

Simplelogin address aren't normal aliases.
