You had to dig deep to get a news from 2021. and still, private doesn‘t mean anonymous, idk why everyone relates the both.
And still, no news here, Proton explained this case several times and they‘ve been pretty transparent.

let me quote from reddit (https://www.reddit.com/...):

The article doesn't link the original court filing or discuss what actually happened, and from the title alone, is rather misleading.

The actual warrant can be found here and has the important missing details: https://drive.proton.me/...

The only data we could provide (in response to a binding Swiss legal order), was the user's recovery email address, which the user added himself, and is optional to begin with.

Unfortunately, said user also used that recovery address to create a Twitter account, and Twitter turned over his phone number and IP address. So probably not the smartest move if you want to threaten public officials.

Coincidentally, this case again proves that Proton Mail's encryption cannot be bypassed by law enforcement.

Everything makes sense to me now. I’m a privacy guru. How to move on? What’s the next step? 😁

the Cert just confirms, that the domain your accessing is belonging to who owns it. When you signup for a cert at LetsEncrypt, you have to run a script on the source, which confirms as your domain.
You wouldn't be able to get a Cert for e.g. amazon.com - because you wouldn't be able to run that specific script on the source and so LetsEncrypt couldn't confirm if that domain really is yours or not. And that's as well the reason, why not trust everyone,

Pass isn‘t yet polished and there are bugs here and there showing up. Also the AutoFill doesn‘t work 100% of the time. And there are features missing like e.g. being able to upload attachements.

Considering the age of Pass vs 1Password, there is way to go for Pass. I made the switch, nevertheless, and once I got used to Pass, it‘s not that bad from my Point of view.

Surely the „create Alias‘ on the fly“ is a big plus, ehich I absolutely love and wouldn‘t want to miss anymore

I use it since 2016, but with my own domain, so can't really speak for the "@ proton" domains
But I never had trouble accessing it in a foreign country, it worked flawless

Check your time settings on the device where the otp doesn‘t work, might be related to a wrong setting

It‘s e2ee and open source, so I‘d be not concerned regarding Proton‘s side.

Keep your Account safe, your passwords long and complex and use 2FA sort of things and you should be fine, I‘d say

@rufus

thanks for taking the time. I already asked over at the asus-linux discord about the issue but got no reactions up until now.

Turn off Safe Boot and features that inhibit booting other operating systems and USB media in your BIOS.

did already, unfortunately not working

Get the installer running. Try the failsafe and fallback video mode options.

all installers (except nobara) do fail when trying to get the bootloader installed, since efibootmgr seems to be in need of the acpi options and I don't get it running with acpi option on.

Tackle one problem at a time. Google it. Add your hardware in question (“Asus Strix G15”) and error message or exact issue (“black screen”) to your query.

that's exactly what I'm trying to do, first and most important (from my understanding) would be to get the OS booted from the USB with acpi on. I am going through google/DDG/qwant/whatever-search-engine to look it up and tried everything I was able to find in relation to my Hardware, but wasn't able to tackle the issue up until now, that's why I'm asking for help all over the reddits/lemmys/kbins/discords...

I can get Nobara - and only Nobara - installed so I can boot without USB, but there as well only with acpi off.

I tried with Fedora, Nobara, ubuntu LTS, pop!_os, GarudaOS, silverblue, Mint, with everyone having the issue not being able to boot without acpi=off and getting to a black screen and USBs (seem) powered off right after choosing the OS in grub.

appreciate your time replying, thank you.

True.
Then with Proton (idk about tutanota) you should be able to mail E2EE with them, since you can import their Public Keys into Proton. It's not just "E2EE Proton2Proton", since Proton uses PGP, you can safely mail E2EE with anyone using PGP.

Afaik they‘re working on deattach Pass from the other Services, until then I‘ll keep BW + Authy as a backup

Unfortunately nothing. Did install - reboot with acpi=off, reboot with no acpi parameter, reboot with acpi=off

Dmesg shows for the boot=-1 the first boot after install with acpi=off

No log for the try without acpi parameter 😢😢

Booting with acpi=off shows many logs with „IRQ not found for nvidia …“ (in the meaning, not wordly).

Edit: can‘t find an irq for your nvidia card

Edit 2: found a boot.log file. When trying to boot without acpi=off then no log is written, the bootprocess doesn‘t even start. From this point of view I‘d guess a Problem with UEFI. Still no idea what and where, but it‘s not graphics related if the bootprocess doesn‘t start at all… what d‘you think?

compared to gmail, both are more then viable options and it depends on personal preferences. Personally I chose Proton and I am very happy with it.

message people I know who use Gmail securely

don't know how that should work, but ok...
