  • Yeah, I cannot find it documented anywhere. Which is probably on purpose, to avoid malicious actors finding out ways to bypass it. But you can find plenty of users on Reddit and whatnot complaining about how they are not getting registration emails for whatever services in their new Proton email accounts, then it suddenly works just fine when they try again ten days later.


  • Is your Proton account new? I believe Proton automatically filters out verification emails like that until the account reaches a certain age. As a means of restricting users from creating an anonymous throwaway Proton account to use just to sign up for another service to abuse it. Verification emails will not appear in your spam/junk/deleted folder or anything. You will just not receive them in any way at all. I am not sure how many days it takes for that restriction to be automatically lifted.







  • Any time I’ve tried uploading them, they are converted to jpg files. The only way I’ve been able to include them is by referencing images that are already hosted somewhere.

    I know that some instances have server-end logic in place to downscale uploaded images, or convert GIFs to WEBP, etc to reduce file size. I wouldn’t be surprised if your instance just converts all GIFs to a static JPG for some reason.
