Years ago I became a customer for MAIL. ** JUST. MAIL.**

I now have access to
VPN
-Don't care, don't want. I use a different service.
Drive
-I'd rather eat my own head than trust someone else's computer with my files. I self host.
Docs+Sheets, storing the documents in the abovementioned "Drive"
Are you joking?
ProtonPass
-Use a different self hosted solution
Wallet
-Not on your @#^ing life

Every single time I find out more trash got glued to my account I get angrier.

Either provide a "Mail+Calendar ONLY" package for a discount or prepare to lose a customer.

You're not the only one to say so

That said, you don't have to use what you don't want and the lower price tiers only have the mail.

I like that youtuber. I'll be sure to watch that vid when I get home later. At this point if they won't give us a "no bloat" package I'm likely to go to Tuta this year. Already using my own domain so it's hardly going to be difficult.

Can warn you that Tuta seems to be getting bloated with useless features and completely neglecting their mail and calendar this year too as they’re gonna release their drive.

Oh jeez. Thanks for the heads up. That's it, if I'm going anywhere I'm taking the leap and self hosting email now too.
