It seems they are in the middle of the road of merging SimpleLogin and Proton Pass.
I have Mail Plus (~$4/month) and SL (~$2/month) subs, as they’re the only services I need and cost less than the ~$10/month for Proton Unlimited, which is what I would need to pay for if I used both services from Proton.
Right now there’s this Proton Pass feature gray area, where I have Pass free, so I’m limited to 10 aliases, but the aliases I create on Pass have the custom domain I setup on SL, and show on my SL dashboard too. Weird.
I do use a custom domain because I’d like to be able to switch from SL if I ever have a reason to do so, but I have no use for multiple mailboxes (yet), so I guess I’ll be keeping my current arrangement.
I have no need for the actual password management from Pass, as I’m quite happy with my KeePass + Dropbox (to be moved to Proton Drive when they release a Mac app) setup.
I try not to depend too much in one company/service, but Proton seems to be finding a way to suck me in.
Got the same response. After being a Mail Plus subscriber for years, I felt let down when I wasn’t eligible for the Pass Plus sub under the same account.
It would save me money because I currently have a (Proton owned) SimpleLogin sub for protecting my email, which I could replace for the cheaper Pass Plus.
I guess you could try using two different Proton accounts, one for Mail and one for Pass. Although I’m not sure if this will create some UX problem/conflict.
I guess I’m one Proton service away from switching to Proton Unlimited. Although the counter-argument in my head is that I don’t like companies that try to provide all in one services, like all of Big Tech.
