The creator is pro-Trump and they also recently stopped posting updates to Mastodon citing "they don't have the resources" for it, or something like that.
Correct me if I have missed something; I've got no skin in the game, I just see the drama a lot.
Found this the other day, and it sorta makes me agree that this is getting a little blown up

And the top comment explains why it indeed is such s big issue. This is incomprehensibly incompetent.
There are few more services you need to be able to trust beyond your mail and VPN. If you have still trust then that's ok, don't get me wrong - but stating "just because the CEO spewed s bit of pro trump shit this got blown out of proportion" doesn't acknowledge the propositions at all.
Andy Yen, who probably doesn't keep up with U.S. news outside what he needs to for his company's business needs, said an egghead thing.
Unless he said something else everyone is blowing this out of proportion.
The dumbification really does seem to permeate everything everywhere, doesn't it. Imagine circlejerking antiintellectual regime taking points on lemmy.
Okay, "fucking dumbshit" then. Stop treating it like Proton is supporting trump somehow
Well, "everyone" being radicals online who think that everything is some sort of call to war. Normal people realize what it is. There are sprinkles of sane people here on Lemmy, but they're drowned out by the crazies.
QED
So weird these business guys get involved into political crap. It's gotta alienate one side or another, simply lose lose.
