In other words, a community where proton does official announcements, such as downtime for maintenance, new services and so on?

I know of another community too !protonmail@lemmy.ml

I don’t know if they are ‘official’ neither.

No judgements, just wanted to know the status, so to speak

    Yes it is. /u/ProtonPrivacy@lemmy.world is an official account from the Proton team. While the team is currently not posting here at this moment, we both /u/alex_herrero@lemmy.world and myself are here to answer your questions. We are also moderating the Proton subs on reddit.

    edit: We are also figuring out still how everything works here. Please have some patience :-)

      Good to know, thanks! I think most of us are still figuring some things out as well :-)

      Might I suggest Proton sets up their own Mastodon and Lemmy instance? But in such a way that only employees can get an account.

      That way, the accounts are instantly authorized. And you don’t use bandwidth paid for by volunteers and donations.

      Proton owns and uses the proton.me domain. Which means it should be possible to setup for example social.proton.me. That way, Proton could create their own Mastodon accounts:

      @support@social.proton.me @<accountname>@social.proton.me

      etc.

      But if the company also sets up a Lemmy instance, it could also register an official Proton community.

      !proton@social.proton.me
