Discussion Why doesn't Proton buy proton.com?

0 Upvotes

Serious question. I think a lot of average users don't take Proton seriously because of the .me domain. To non-tech people, .com just looks more professional and trustworthy.

If Proton managed to get proton.com, I honestly believe monthly active users would explode. Many people I've talked to hesitate to switch from Gmail/Outlook partly because "proton.me" doesn't feel like a big, established company to them.

Is there a reason Proton hasn't gone after the .com? Price? Owner refusing to sell? Or is it just not a priority?

Curious what others think.

Desktop Help Submitted ticket 4 days ago and haven’t heard back

0 Upvotes

I set up a new account but none of the emails are going in or out. I submitted multiple tickets over the course of a couple of days starting 4 days ago. Got an automated response but nothing else. Is this a normal wait time? I’m new to proton mail and so far it’s not looking like I’ll stay.

Possible bug I've been bombarded with spam for the past few days

10 Upvotes

I receive several spam emails every hour that aren't meant for me. What's going on?

For example, the email address in the “To” field—which includes “Stephanie”—is NOT my address.

It keeps going in circles. I'm logged in. I go to create another account. it asks me to log in again. I do. It goes back to the inbox. I click create another account. It asks me to log in. I do. It goes back to the inbox.

Four times.

Possible bug ProtonSheets keep crashing

8 Upvotes

Basically the title. The application opens fine and everything but the second I try to type out a formula it crashes. More specifically the VERY SECOND I press a key that will reference a sector/cell it crashes(like when I type "=SUM(B" right when type "B" it crashes). Is there a fix to this because surely this isn't something that happens to everyone.
