I prefer to roll my own dice. When I see two names I am unfamiliar with, I pick the one that sounds better when I say it out loud.

I'd argue physical channels and access are even less secure. People are broken easily (you can't trust anyone) and surveillance is everywhere and more sophisticated than you imagine. My first job was at a US-based video surveillance company owned by Israelis and used by casinos, stadiums, and entire cities. I have an idea of what it's capable of :)

What we need is a truly secure and private method of communication and payment. We're close on both.

I do-- I own my own company and the office is my house :)

There's a difference between becoming incredibly good at frontend and knowing enough to get things done and be a productive member of a team (ie, not get fired like the OP).

Maybe you should learn some front end and avoid the problem altogether?

"I don't do X type of work" is pretty unrealistic and comes across as more stubborn than anything else. This is especially true in a small/scrappy company up to medium size companies where you're expected to wear multiple hats.

Maybe at Google you can get away with being the "person that does X-only" but that doesn't work in most companies.

Your job is to do _the thing_ if that thing includes front end work, then you do the front end work.

It depends on your threat model. If your threat includes three letter agencies and nation states then you're right-- don't use Proton. However, 99.9% of people don't have that threat model. In that case, Proton is better than most other providers out there (for email, vpn, etc).

It's not dead. It just gosub without return.

It would seem the best way to put an end to the ES fiasco is to simply release what you have (and post the update to Kickstarter)?

If the engine and tools are 90% complete, it's better to release 90% of something than nothing at all. The backers would no longer be able to call it a scam. It's probably the only way to put it all to rest.

Mission accomplished!

Code review? There was no code review. We did get our own offices though!
