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

This would be a most valuable improvement, even a published API such that the community can develop its own clients would be valuable.

Whether as a GUI or CLI application, I would love to see Linux support for Proton Drive soon!

Almost four years on we still have new requests for this capability. Working in a Linux focused company myself, and being a Visionary user of Proton I am going to hazard a guess that, since we already have a solid web UI as well as Proton Bridge for mail on Linux, a Proton sync client for Linux would be FAR more valuable than a dedicated mail app.

I am very happy with of all the brilliant services you provide, but the fact that a sync client for Linux is still lacking makes Proton Drive next to useless to me. This also means that there's hardly any benefit for me for subscribing to a plan with more storage space.

I think it would be awesome to have Proton Drive support for Linux. I use Manjaro Linux on my laptop fulltime, and Windows on my desktop full time. Having a Proton Drive client that allowed me to more easily move files between the 2 and store them in the cloud would be awesome. In the meantime I will continue using the shared folder and then moving them around accordingly.

personally, i'm not on linux, so i don't care about having a gui or cli for linux. however, implementing a protocol compatible with my synology or simply having a universal protocol that lets me interact without using the official proton client seems essential. In the same way that there's a bridge for protonmail or the possibility of importing a safe from another password manager. We need to try and make protondrive more universal, otherwise what's the point of having 6 to that you can't use?

Lots of mentions in the past week about the Linux beta mail client...perhaps this indicates more progress on other Linux development in the near future.
Note: mail app is limited to 14 day trial for the free tier.

Please add, especially with automatic sync and CLI!

As another said, "The lack of ssh, scp, API, or desktop client access to proton drive really is holding back a lot of free authoritative recommendations to potential business and private customers."
A GUI would be nice for the Desktop, but I would really love some kind of CLI or Daemon option.

I'm using Proton for a year and would love using it fully : meaning having an easy Drive access on Linux would be GREAT ! Thx in advance for take our demand in account :-) And thanks in advance for your work ;-)

Hi Team,
Adding my votes to the growing number of people who would love to see a Linux client for Proton Drive become a reality.
Personally, it's the only thing that is holding me back from moving over to a Linux desktop environment, full-time and although I have some understanding of the complexities of offering a client for multiple file systems, there are a number of developers making strides, who I urge Proton to reach out to.
Love the products so far, but this would be something of a game changer for so many users.
Thanks!

This would be great feature to have for users trying to stay away from the Windows environment.
