proton mail won’t even let me post a feature request about something that caused me to accidentally leak my email address (pressing ANY of the three largest buttons on the screen)

 Screenshot of a Reddit post deleted by mods of protons community reddit /ProtonMail 20h ago gintoxicating Subject: “Please add an actual calendar opt out” Feature Request “I saw previous feature requests for this from years ago, but there seems to still be no way to remove/disable calendar functionality from my account. There is no calendar spam control, and one can't delete most spam events using the mobile app (lol) because they have invitees. Clicking on the big buttons on the event in an attempt to delete it (which, again, isn't actually possible in the mobile app) resulted in my private information to leak to at least one spammer. This was my fault, and support has made it clear I'm entirely to blame for trying to figure out how to use their product (due to missing basic app functionality such as deleting such an event). So this is entirely my fault and l am to blame. I personally think putting a single-tap button that doesn't clarify that it will send your email address to a third party is at best unclear for a privacy-sensitive app that I cannot opt out of, but to be clear I am wrong and my opinion is problematic. I have deleted all the calendars I never created but Proton just creates a new one. So this is a feature request to actually let me disable this thing. “ Followed by an alert box: “Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/ProtonMail.” Directors commentary : Reddit suggested i post this to r/VisitingHawaii instead lol
