I used to use Protonmail and VPN, but one day my password just randomly stopped working and I lost access to everything. Switched over to Tutanota and Mullvad and have had zero issues since.
Bro this reads like an ad. You using VPN has nothing to do with YOU losing your password.
Edit: might add this is the classic bad user you see in tech support.
CAPS ON
types password
Login failed
tries the same password several times
gets locked out
blames the service
Lmao you're right. Removed the first part. It came to look like an ad because I posted my first thought, then came back with my second one and appended it.
As far as the password goes, to this day I have no idea how it happened. I don't want to admit I use the same password for everything, but ye know.. it just stopped working for Proton one day.
