As a premium subscriber, I cannot emphasize enough how vital it is that Proton Drive gets a Linux client. It's necessary for my workflow. A large proportion of your paying customers are privacy conscious and use operating systems like Linux. Please extend an olive branch for these users with no less than 14 pages of comments supporting this move.

You have a Windows client and a Mac clienet. Please add a Linux client. I know Google has ignored Linux users, but you're better than Google. Please add a linux client.
Thank you

Ich verstehe nicht, wieso eine Firma, welche sich "Sicherheit" auf die Fahne schreibt, nicht als allererstes einen Linux-Sync-Client erstellt.

Totally, even a stable rclone implementation would work for me.

Waiting for this feature to onboard everyone with family subscription, Linux only here ;-)

using mail, but drive is only useful when it can sync with a Linux client

New Proton unlimited member here; desperately waiting for a Linux client, preferably AppImage so its compatible with every linux install. Not sure why windows is given better support overall than linux since this is supposed to be a privacy-conscious company.

Can't even use proton drive till this is implemented. PRIORITY 1 FOLKS. THROW US A *frickin* BONE. (Dr. evil voice)

Just want to point out that any linux client *needs* to have a (preferably lightweight) CLI option without requiring any kind of desktop client to be installed. Otherwise it's useless for syncing with servers or from docker images.

After login/acquiring tokens there's only like a 3 or 4 step process from "initiate upload" to "send file blocks", I don't see why this couldn't be a shell script with curl. Maybe there's something I'm missing, havent actually tried, but maybe as a stopgap the dev team could create this (with disclaimers as needed).

Please, please, please I want a Linux client

I am fully paid into the Proton infrastructure and also request that a Linux client can be made available. Syncing files is really important for backup and connectivity purposes. Otherwise keep up the good work.

I need a Linux client

It's a shame that Proton publicized the MacOS client's launch with the phrasing that Proton Drive is available for "all major platforms" when it is not available for Linux. Even if you put forward an argument that Linux is not as popular as Mac for a client OS (and there are sometimes stats indicating that is not true), enough people use Linux systems that it is impossible and misleading to claim it is not a major platform. As a paying customer that uses primarily Linux systems, I hope they will hurry up and provide equal support for this major platform.

Mac client is available, the Linux one should follow. Keep fingers crossed...

Hey you really need to release a linux version. For someone of my means, proton is expensive. You make great apps for all your devices in my opinion. but the decision to focus on preferential development spend instead of ensuring that your product can be used anywhere is saddening. Put in some money and overtime and give us something. Also, Mac as well. Jeez

Windows is a privacy nightmare. Forcing people to use Windows to sync with Proton Drive is against the mission of the company. Please support free software and Linux. I see many companies now providing an AppImage (even tax software these days) enabling people to stay safe on Linux. Snap or Flatpack are great options as well. I am a paying customer and I would love to be able to use drive on Linux. Otherwise, it's quite useless to me.

I don't need a desktop client. I would be already very happy with a CLI tool to just sync a directory.

It would really justify me paying for your service

I have subscribed to proton unlimited and thought I would be able to use the drive storage. Unfortunately, with the lack of drive client for Linux, the unlimited offer sounds te be very limited to me since syncing files on drive space would be manual.

Please can we have a linux drive client

This is absolutely the only feature preventing me from signing up for the proton suite. I have Windows and Mac machines in my home, but Linux is my daily driver. I'm willing to lose 75% of my storage capacity (Dropbox = 2TB, Proton = 0.5TB) but proper Linux integration is absolutely paramount to my adoption.
