I’d like to move off from the shackles of the Google menace and transferring my Gmail related accounts over including steam but I’d like some solid advice of any well regarded and better alternatives (including open source if that is possible)

I did search but was unsure of what was best as I did hear some shoddy things about Proton.

Do you know anything that could be the “aegis 2fa” of email providers?

Thank you and have a good day/night.

      You’re right, based on those definitions the word doesn’t mean what I intended. I don’t know what the right word would be. I used it to mean one who overreacts to relatively minor or inconsequential transgressions, taking drastic, often out-of-proportion or only tangentially relevant actions to rectify perceived harms.

      One example would include people ditching the entire company Proton, an entity with a stellar track record of improving the state of privacy on the internet, after a single member of their board made some dipshit comments. Another example might include the general reaction a few months ago when that misleading story about Mozilla and ad tracking was making the rounds. Other more extreme examples would be the passing of the Patriot Act and invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan following 9/11, or the Israeli response to 2023’s attack on them.
