    It helps make the transition smoother for people.
    Which the post explains quite well.

      Yeah for real. I’ve been thinking about switching to Proton. Now, instead of switching everything all at once (read: change the email associated to all my accounts across various websites), I can switch a few to get started and still have all my email in one place until I feel like doing the rest. That makes the task seem a lot less daunting.

      To be frank, it also pauses the transition. The gmail address will remain the façade because no one even sees the proton address this way.

      I fins the University email use case mentioned above a better one.
