Linux Client
Proton Drive really needs the ability to sync desktop files automatically. This post focuses on a Linux client for Proton Drive.

Literally the only thing keeping me from giving you all my money

I'd be happy if Proton Drive had a linux client that would allow me to mount my Proton Drive on my local filesystem. Having it with the ability to sync data would be nice but not absolutely necessary. I could use rsync to keep the various directories I wan backed up backed up on my Proton Drive and synced with the local directories they'd be backups of. There's a third party app that lets me mount my google drive account on my linux box,. I use rsync to keep directories backed up there, but I'd like to give up the google account.

I need this if I ever want to use proton drive properly. Manually dragging and dropping is... okay... but automatically syncing and being able to save files "directly" into the cloud (or into a synced folder) is worth so much with my workflows

a must have! especially if you are serious about all the open source talk :). Joke aside, I would really appreciate such an app and definitely migrate my existing tresor-drive solution.

A linux sync client is the only feature holding me back from upgrading to the unlimited plan.

That's the only reason I didn't upgrade my account yet, but I don't know if this could create some kind of security issue. Nevertheless, it's a must have feature.

The value in encrypted cloud storage really is as a central hub for data that users want to edit / view across their devices. Drag / drop / upload / download is not convenient or user friendly. I am paying for security AND convenience.

I would be subscribing to Proton Unlimited if it wasn't for the lack of a Dropbox like sync client on Linux

Visionary here. Come on Linux Drive for Linux is mandatory. What is the holdup? I have all these tools I pay for and cannot use them.
There is no excuse that there is not already a Linux AppImage already made for Drive to be able to sync.

This is what is needed to get rid of OneDrive and DropBox!

Why pay for a service if I can't access it from my work machines? This is critical to me.

Absolutely essential. Essentially unusable without automatic syncing via a desktop client.

My operating system is Linux, this application is a vital tool for me, managing all my files from the browser takes time; I have to download and re-upload

I am a visionary user and in my opinion this is critical.

Any idea on time frame for this?

Without a Linux client this service is essentially useless to me
I am hesitating to subscribe to the paid version because this feature is missing -
