# The Single Biggest Reason Why ProtonMail is Killing My Productivity

**[It's Foss](https://daily.dev/sources/itsfoss)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A ProtonMail Visionary plan user shares frustration over the absence of a canned response (saved replies) feature after six years of using the service. The author explains how the missing feature forces a multi-step workaround that wastes time when handling repetitive emails. Additional suggestions include predictive text that respects privacy (similar to Proton's existing local search approach) and better AI integration via Lumo to compose replies automatically. The post calls on Proton to add these productivity features if it wants to be a genuine private alternative to Google Workspace.
