What is this? Since when did cloud hosted solutions announce version number changes? Is ProtonMail suddenly available as an open source self-hosted platform?
https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClient (I don't think they have an open source version of their server, but the web client is OSS and versioned)

It would be great if cloud solutions actually allowed customers to upgrade to new versions when it suits them, not when it suits the provider. And with security fixes properly backported.

Some providers do this for specific APIs though I may be thinking of SaaS and not the general cloud. I agree though. Although I think Azure Functions lets you pick the version as well iirc.
The goal is likely to get peoples attention, in particular to new features and changes in their platform.
So wait, are they reintroducing ECC?

As a user for more than a year I've suffered data loss using the Bridge Client on macOS, seen (and have copies of) encrypted phishing emails originating from trusted TLDs and PM themselves, and well, if they fixed something in the new release I'd really hope it would be the Phishing report button - which doesn't seem to work on Android.
I looked at Tutanota as an alternative, but in the end all I really wanted was something that integrates with my operating environments and just works. There are plenty of ways to communicate securely. Email doesn't have to be best one.

However, I wonder when (if at all) they plan on encrypting more metadata...? Any of you users actually look at the network log of ProtonMail web app? Almost all effort goes in to encrypting just the body of the emails, while just about everything else is seemingly stored in plaintext (headers, subjects, senders, recipients, etc etc)
