Announcement from the Proton team on Reddit (Libreddit link):
Today, we’re increasing file storage limits on the free plan.
Instead of sharing 1 GB between files and email, you’ll now have:
5 GB for Proton Drive
1 GB for Proton Mail
Additional context: For Proton Drive, you now start with 2 GB and for Proton Mail, you start with 500 MB. After signing up for the Free plan, you can unlock the maximum storage allowance on each service thus:
You can boost your Proton Mail storage from 500 MB to 1 GB by completing four account setup actions.
You can boost your Proton Drive storage from the default 2 GB to 5 GB by completing three tasks.
You must be a lot of fun at parties.
Just because you personally don’t like a service or it fails some silly purity test you made up doesn’t give you some right to censor news about it.
Stand down as a moderator: what little power you have has already gone to your head and now you’re activity harming the communities you’re supposed to be protecting.
