    I agree with the sentiment, but this is also a silly demand. Of course they do their ama where they have the most reach, and possibly share the info in smaller places such as this.

      They can do whatever they want on Reddit, TBH. However, pointing Lemmy users to Reddit is a bad move in a number of ways. I won’t be touching Reddit for this, as an example.

      Using Lemmy as a place to shit out advertising for a site that gives zero fucks about selling data to Google kinda rubs me wrong, especially since this AMA is just thinly veiled marketing… for a privacy app.

      While “having the most reach” is a good argument for a few reasons, it doesn’t negate how Lemmy was used in this case.

      Edit: Don’t let my sentiment get in the way of yours. I have nothing wrong with ProtonMail or what its goals are. However, I will get a little defensive of Lemmy and why many people are here to begin with.

        I loged in to my account for the first time in over a year, to ask them about starting their own Fediverse instances for public communications. Specifically Mastodon and Lemmy.
