Can uploads to Proton Drive be automated?

You/users have a choise. Use privacy invasive chat apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, etc for free or invest some time and/or money to self-host it or use their SaaS option. Either way, you're far better than using WhatsApp. Signal is a very good option.

If you "don't care about privacy because if have nothing to hide", I recommend reading Means of Control by Byron Tau or just watch what ICE is doing with all the data Palantir is offering.

I've been using it for more than a year to communicate with my family and a very small group of friends. The video and audio call features are good and I've replaced phone calls and Signal/WhatsApp with it. Because it's XMPP, there are many clients you can use, not just the Snikket app. Overall, I recommend it because of the End2End Encryption features and self-hostable (if that's a term)

GrapheneOS is the way to go.

WTF is with this site? No option to reject all cookies? Only "Accept all" & "Reject all and subscribe". I just added it to my blocklist.

Very good question! AFAIK, no.

Here is an article I saved while doing some research on Matrix VS XMPP. (I'm using XMPP) https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/matrix-vs-xmpp/

True. Maybe it was not the best phrasing. It may apply to some email providers (eg. Proton) if email communication happens only between recipients of the same provider, which is rarely the case.

I mentioned this to highlight that if this pressure is put on legitimate secure services like GrapheneOS, then you can imagine that your email data is scrutinized without your knowledge.

French government is trying to crack down on encrypted services. https://x.com/GrapheneOS/status/1993035936800584103 I'm avoiding anything from France for now.

Check Feishin. It works great with both Jellyfin and Navidrome.
