As am I, but little difference does that make. They used to never show any ads to paying customers, but that seems to have changed a while ago, and its been ramping up ever since. I think most of their products have been patched to show them by now. They’re always ads like AMAZING DEAL! GET BROTON ULTRA POLY DELUXE TRIO FOR BIGAMISTS AND SAVE UP TO ¥3,50 WHEN PURCHASING A SUBSCRIPTION FOR 3 OR MORE YEARS AT A TIIIME - FOR A LIMITED.TIME ONLY (UNTIL WE REPEAT THE EXACT SAME DEAL AT THE NEXT UPCOMING HOLIDAY)!
Only a little bit of hyperbole, but you know what I mean. Fuck, I hate ads so much. I’ve spent considerable efforts to make my life as free of ads as about possible, and then Proton serves me this shit, completely unprompted, and with no way of turning them off. And they’re (in-app) pop-up ads, literally getting in my way and having to be dismissed. The nerve! I don’t care if they’re ads for Proton services, for scuba diving lessons, or messages from a Nigerian prince - they’re all equally unwelcome and in my way.
What ads? Am paid user.
Even paid users get them. Advertisements for their own products.
Oh I see. I might have seen some but I don’t register those as ads I guess.

I am too. Still get ads to upgrade to higher plans in the mail app.
What ads? I use ublock origin.
