I just made an account to check, it seems to be a bit "too good to be true" in terms of features, and raises a few red flags otherwise.

They give you a free tier where you can use your own domain, they have apps for all major platforms, and the web app is quite pushy (that's the red flags): you have a list of tasks to do in order to get $10 credit for each task, like importing emails from gmail, downloading the app, etc (all those tasks carry a risk, privacy wise, depending on their code).

Given this behavior and the fact that the platform is from California, it reeks of investor and VC money, and I really wonder what's their business plan, if they really do what they advertise. There's a reason every platform that has solid encryption and respects privacy is either a donation based platform, pushing for donations (e.g. signal), or a paid platform with a pretty restricted free tier (or no free tier at all).

Personally I'm gonna close the account and not come back, I'm a bit weirded out, but I wouldn't bet my bottom dollar that they are ill intended either...
