I have long been a dual Linux/Windows user. I am ditching Windows 11 because of the ever encroaching privacy concerns, and Windows 10 is EOL next year. So I'm moving to Linux full time. In that move, I'd LOVE to ditch OneDrive, for something better. Proton Drive seems like a great option, simpler to implement than other top privacy respecting candidates, and the other feature of the paid Proton Unlimited or Family package would allow me to replace a number of other services at the same time (i.e. VPN, mail, calendar, and password manager). But the lack of Linux support is a dealbreaker.

Recent Windows 11 feature announcements are going to drive quite a few people away from Windows and Microsoft, and Linux is a mature, top alternative. Not supporting Linux is going to mean missing out on marketshare from those fleeing Microsoft.

Drive needs a Linux client. With mail I actually prefer to use a browser, but drive needs a native install that can sync in the background. It is not a viable alternative to other options like Dropbox until it can sync with all your devices. I specifically want to be able to install it on my Synology NAS, but desktop Linux will be needed to.

As a Linux user, the fact that you can't really use Proton Drive because of a missing real-time synchronization client is a disgrace and a scandal! And reading the comments, I discover that Linux users have been waiting for this for 4 years!
What a disappointment! Maybe we're considered a negligible quantity!

I don't understand why this is not a thing yet. You don't even have to provide a client yourself; just stabilize and document the API so we can have a proper rclone client.

With MS becoming increasingly hostile to user/data privacy, I would very much like to ditch Win11 and use something like OpenSUSE as a daily driver for my home PC. Having a native Linux app for Proton Drive would make that switch possible, since it's currently the only cloud-based storage solution I use.

It is really annoying not to have Sync on Linux.

Please add this.

put the sync for Linux as a top goal ...... urgently needed

I plan to self host a Nextcloud instance to move away from Google Drive, Photos and Microsoft OneDrive with a VPS for backup, I wish Proton would be compatible with Linux since it would be easier and more convenient.

Please prioritize a Linux client for Proton Drive. It's the only thing left for me to call this service perfect for my needs

Without linux support for proton drive i won't upgrade to a paid proton account

As many have said at this point, a Linux client is the only reason I haven't migrated to this yet.

Please provide Linux client, very necessary. I'm still on Nextcloud waiting to use my Proton space.

I fully endorse what @Joshua just said. I keep looking almost every day for feedback by Proton about this request, but nothing to be found.

It would be really great to get an update on the status of a linux client. I've been paying for quite some time (partially on the premise that eventually a client would be available). Still, about two years since this idea was put up and there's nothing for me to use. It's disappointing that Linux users are treated as an afterthought.

Without a Linux client, Proton Drive is basically useless to me

This missing feature is stopping me from using Proton Drive.

Essential addition.

Currently on a full migration from Windows with deadline Windows 10 EoL. I really need this to work asap

only thing stopping me from moving from dropbox is the lack of a linux client for proton drive
