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

Most important feature that needs to be prioritized.

I only use Linux and have not touched windows for almost a decade. In fact I cancelled my Dropbox subscription and subscribed to your Duo plan just for your Proton Drive (better privacy). It would be really helpful if you had a Linux app like Dropbox did so I don't have to constantly keep doing all my work in a web browser.

Me another Linux user paying for Unlimited plan yet on a long wait for a desktop sync client. It's such a shame that on reddit some people constantly claim Linux users are not important enough. Maybe we are the minority, but proportionally we are much more likely to subscribing to privacy-focused services. And the fragmentation excuse no longer holds!! There is Flatpak that runs any distro, or just provide a .deb for Ubuntu and GNOME and the community will take care of the rest.

I work in the security information business and I don't use regular clouds that register my activity or any legacy solution for my critical data.

A function that's absolutely essential if you want to switch to 100% proton use!
Make this your absolute priority :-) -

Downloading from the website is horrible, can't achieve more than 15KB/s. A native Linux client is a must.

I am looking into replacing my onedrive as well as other services with proton unlimited but this is what's holding me back. The day we get a Linux client for proton drive I will be purchasing 2 years of unlimited, until then you won't see a dollar.
Hopefully you acknowledge this soon, I'd prefer to just pay proton rather than 4 different companies for the same services.

Please let me sync Ubuntu with Proton Drive.
The only reason I use Protonmail is because I do not trust Windows, Google or Apple. -

Since Windows 11 and it's further development is already and will even more be a survilliance tool, I see alot of people changing to Linux. Especially because the development of linux in the last years is tremendous! Props to the devs.
So that in mind it's a rational step to develop all Desktop Apps equally for Linux. -

Hello Proton Team. As you can see, there are a lot of votes for this new (or critical) feature. Recently I migrated from Windows to Linux (Mint). I thought to upgrade my plan, but this detail continues stopping me. It would be great that you build this desktop app for linux. Rclone helps too to migrate all conventional cloud storages to Protondrive. Please do it and I (like other people) will pass to proton unlimited. Thank you so much for your continuous support.
