Stolen from @vmstan
More analysis from @wiredfire:
It’s nothing to do with [difficulties in using multiple platforms]. It’s to do with the massive backlash they got on Fedi for their CEO being all Trumpy and somewhat horrible right wing. So they’ve run away because they were made to feel unwelcome on account of us not letting their BS fly.
Original screenshot is of the bio of https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy and wasn’t a post (that confused me for a sec).
That makes no sense, considering the message in question was posted on Xitter, and the backlash they received was far worse and more public on Reddit, where they are directing their followers to go. It won’t stop anyone from talking about them here.

And yet it remains.
They have the ability to moderate their own comments on any platform.

Do you think there’s nothing that archives the content from Reddit? How do you think they knew it was removed?

The message was on Xitter from Andy Yen, but it was highlight on Mastodon by Jonah from Privacyguides.
The official Proton account also tried to defend Andy Yen on Mastodon (and later deleted it).
Here the link to the thread on Mastodon.
Leaving Mastodon doesn’t make Jonah disappear.
They also tried to defend him on Reddit. Again, it makes no sense.
What’s Xitter?
It’s like Twitter but Xitty (pronounced like Xi Jinping).
Portmanteau of X (current name) and Twitter (former name)
And shit, don’t forget the shit
