Tuta Drive First Look: The Encrypted Workspace Big Tech Won't Build

Nostromo: > I’m betting the opposite. They won’t keep expanding into a suite but only keep and improve their existing products a lot more. Tuta is akin to Mullvad. Select few products so the focus is only on making it the best first. You misunderstood my quote. I was saying that other E2EE email companies are likely to follow Proton by creating a suite if they succeed with email. I wasn’t saying that Tuta will go that direction. But that if their competitors who are currently far behind become successful and follow Proton’s footsteps, I hope Tuta has a good strategy. I don’t want Tuta to lose their current lead for lack of vision or innovation. I want them to be competitive, whatever strategy they choose. Nostromo: > PurpleDime: > >> Right now Tuta is ahead of those companies > > How do you mean ahead? And which companies? Just Proton? I mean that when it comes to E2EE email providers, Proton and Tuta are by far in the lead, with Proton being considerably ahead of Tuta. The other E2EE email providers are not even close to being as popular or trusted by the privacy community at large. But I’m sure that’s not going to be the case forever. I’m sure a third and fourth player are gonna come along and be very competitive. This is pure speculation, but IMHO, Skiff was on its way to becoming the third big player in the E2EE email space, but they fumbled the bag.
