Not using Proton Drive currently because there isn't a Linux client to sync my data. Please release one Proton!

Especially for paying members this functionality for Linux user is a must. The fact that Windows is first (f*** Windows) shows a shift towards monetary gain instead of true privacy and usability.

If I could use 100 votes on this I would.

I'm stunned this isn't already implemented. CLI should have been there at the bare minimum, this is critical to have for everyone seriously invested into Proton's mission.
Please please please get this sorted out Proton team, I've already convinced multiple people to get onto your service and without this it would be an absolute tragedy.

How can a company that is privacy oriented not focus on Linux :(
Yes please do ! -

I use NextCloud for my file storage, calendar, and contacts among other things, but now that I am using ProtonMail and ProtonPass, I think the next step should be Proton Drive that is integrated into file managers such as Dolphin, Nemo, and Nautilus.

As Linux is (let's be pragmatic) generally used by kind of power-users, i think a CLI would be enough as a start. At least, to me, it would be really enjoyable. If you don't think you'll be able to release a GUI before a while, let's offer us a CLI, pleeeeaaaaase!!!

The convenience of such feature would definitely justify paying for it. Make it so!

I am pretty sure that when privacy is concerned (which is the focus of protonmail, I would assume) Linux support is a must.

Not usable without.

I would definitely appreciate this feature. This is the one thing that's holding me back from moving from my Plus plan to a monthly Proton plan. If I had a way to use Proton Drive on my computer, I would move completely.

This would enable me to get rid of google drive. Please give us an app that lets us sync directories on our devices with proton drive. Thank you.

I vote for the Linux Client. Sometimes i have a bad internet connection, so it would be usefull to have the files offline on the client.

I vote for a Linux client.
I would prefer that it comes with partial syncing (for selected "offline available" files/folders or a particular folder you can select to be synced). Something like this is suggested in another feature request which also has many votes. However, I know the proton team cannot please all user requests.In any case, I consider important that a client comes with the option to stop/resume syncing. This is useful, for instance, when you change a file and the software that changes the file places a temporary file in the same folder (Libre Office does this all the time for me). These temporary files are immediately deleted after the file being changed is saved. Additionally, this reduces battery consumption (on portables) and network traffic.
