I want to emphasize just how bad bridge is. It's so bad that they nuked the issues section on the repo. They didn't lock it, they removed all record of issues. I found out when trying to click on a useful/familiar issue that was cached by a search engine. Proton says to talk to their support directly, but that is a totally different solution for a totally different problem. The fact that they deleted public history of comments really flares my unsubscribe feelings.

As for the "why is bridge bad / why were you searching for issues": keeping it logged in on a headless server is an exercise in pain. It will latch onto whatever keyring it feels like then fail to integrate. Okay, capitulate and do it through the GUI. That works until the token expires. So you're expected to log in every few days for email backups? I only have so many weekend hours I am willing to waste troubleshooting with an llm before I say "fuck it, I'm going somewhere else".
