Been looking into Posteo and I saw the price for additional storage is 0.25/GB/month with a cap of 75GB. I calculated this to seem to be 18.75 (including the initial 4GB) per month. When looking at Proton, Tuta, and Startmail, this feels very expensive compared to their competitors. Is there something I’m missing here? Does Posteo do a bunch of stuff that warrants a high rate for the higher end compared to the very affordable low end?

    But if most people would use the lower end, wouldn’t that make it less sustainable as a company that also states they very sustainable? (which I’m very happy for and support of course) I’m not an expert in business economics tho :p

    I believe you’d see high usage if you use attachments a lot.

      But if they set the same prices as other popular options like proton and tuta, they will simply lose a lot of customers who could have been someone ready to pay the extra fees. It certainly Isn’t all black and white but a more delicate balance.
