~~I'm gonna be paying for Proton Unlimited soon, which gives me unlimited email aliases through Proton Pass. Currently, however, I use Bitwarden and a SimpleLogin API key to generate aliases. Does paying for Proton give me unlimited aliases through SimpleLogin since SL is owned by Proton?~~

So if I learned to fucking read it says that Proton Unlimited includes a SL Premium subscription with unlimited aliases

Don’t worry, here is in the morning so don’t beat yourself, it happens to all of us from time to time :)

But you only get two IP addresses on each device, right?

"Split tunnelling" lets you use your regular ISP for some apps but Proton for others. So you can use different browsers to appear to be two different people on a single web site.

If you're on Android, you could also set up a work profile and run the VPN with a different connection, and have 3 there.

Yes on Android I can do split tunnelling too as well as 4G. So a total of four IP's (not three).

It is annoyingly inconsistent that the Android app split tunnelling is done via an exclusion list but the laptop app does it via an inclusion list.

Oh I think I've met you! You must be my coworker!

Just joking of course, looking fun of a privacy focused person while making a point my coworkers also don't read. I'm glad you didn't delete the post though, I enjoyed the journey. You did read, you're better than my coworkers.
