I need Linux support for my Proton Drive. I cannot work in bulk through the web interface. I can't be the only Linux user out here that is struggling with this.

@Yannick Doe -- filen.io doesn't support Unix/Linux symbolic links. It copies the file the link points to; it doesn't save the link itself. Not usable for Unix/Linux cloud storage.

@Jean-Claude: You can always use Filen.io.

I’ll remain for another year to wait for this Linux feature—coming from the Google ecosystem, it feels like a significant regression for me. After that, I’ll evaluate other solutions for sharing my data across multiple platforms.

I am waiting for this possibility. It is impossible to migrate from windows to linux if there is nothing to replace onedrive.

They're working on it: 🙂

I don't know how one of the most requested feature is behing left out. Should be a priority for the drive application...

Hey, why can I do this on Windows (which I no longer use) but not on my beloved Linux?

It is very disappointing to switch back from the no longer supported Windows 10 to Ubuntu and find out that there is no ProtonDrive client for Linux. Are you asking me to sync files manually via the browser? Or do you suggest cancelling the subscription and back-up-ing files on an external HDD? Or maybe your suggestion is to embrace the retro lifestyle and go back to using floppy discs, or why not even papyrus scrolls, call it slow living and spend more time hiking in nature and meditating?

With the changes arriving for windows 11 a lot of people will go to linux. The way windows is behaving is not acceptable !!!! Plus I want to quite Drop box to put all my information on proton Drive wich I trust.
I decided to do so and realised that I can not use proton drive on linux. When are you plaining to make it possible ?

Hi All,

I've already "gotten over it" and I've cancelled my Unlimited subscription after having it a number of years. It was up for renwal in November, so I moved everything to more "best of breed" solutions. Proton is a reasonably good one stop shop, but individually the applications are less than ideal. Drive is especially slow across all platforms anyway. Mail is also slow. They don't devote enough bandwidth resources to these applications.

They don't care about Linux anyway. There aren't enought Linux users for them to care about. I found other solutions that support Linux equally. It's a numbers thing. In a way, Proton did me a favor by causing me to become aggravated and inconvenienced enough regarding Drive for Linux that I did the work to find all things better.

Best regards

Agreed. I like Lumo, but there are way more important things to focus resources on, like matching the core functionalities of the Google Suite. The wallet thing is just pointless. There's plenty of other open source, private, and secure crypto wallets that are way better, so it doesn't solve any problems.

I'm a "Visionary Subscriber," and I'm done waiting for this. There'll be an adequate API before I renew, or I'll move on. Microsoft is no longer an option for those that give a **** about their privacy.

Get on it, or I'll get over it and find another solution.

Sincerely,
John

If you want to support privacy, you have to support Linux

To @John Dough: Because Proton never actually cared about Linux. All they know is making us wait for more than 3 years, breaking Rclone functionality, and pretending they care about supporting Linux.

I don’t care about Proton anymore, nor will I ever pay them a cent.

not only on debian please, but also on fedora at least if not also in archlinux.
At least in cLI

With 4,618 votes on a post from 2022, how is this not a priority yet?

I just bought one year of Proton Unlimited and was shocked to find out that there is no Linux client for Proton Drive to sync directories.
That is a very important feature, which I assumed would be there when I signed up.
If you cannot provide this for some reason, please provide at least a stable and documented API interface.
Or you could also give stable support for the Proton Drive integration of the "rclone" utility.

Yeah was kind of disappointed to see that AI bot appear .

Agreed, core functionality is lacking in many areas as compared to constant new features
