I'm thinking on potentionally subscribing for an Unlimited with a student discount.

Are you satisfied with it's current services? I've seen mixed reviews from ProtonVPN. Someone loves it, someone despises it. Also does Proton Pass offer any convenience benefits over Bitwarden?

Yeah de-googling is a huge part of me considering Proton as an alternative. Wow I didn't that you get loyalty extra drive spaces.

Are there other Calendar annoyances for you? One time the free Proton Calendar just deleted all the synchronized events for me for some reason.

The only calendar annoyance I've found so far is that I can't add attachments to my Proton calendar. Both Google and Microsoft Office calendars let me attach files. Sometimes, if I'm attending an event or something, I like to attach the flyer with details to my calendar event, so I don't have to dig through my email for the details. Right now, I can only type in a description to Proton calendar events.

Oof that should be a crucial feature to have.
