Of course it is good news, and I'm an happy Proton customer since over an year, but this Proton blog post dates back 2 months now...

They just pushed an email announcement out, which is probably where OP heard about it.

And that makes it irrelevant because...? I'm a subscriber and I wasn't aware of this until this post...

They literally sent the email out within the last 36 hours. My work account got it this morning, and my personal last night.

The email was more of a summary of past changes.

The actual donation of shares to the Proton Foundation was a little while ago, and anyone directly subscribed to the Proton Blog probably already saw it (myself included), so seeing it show up again as if it was new news probably just felt a bit jarring to some people.
