I was surprised and disappointed to find there isn't a Linux app for Proton Drive. We're paying for the service, this really needs to be prioritized. Microsoft is going to keep bleeding users as Windows becomes more and more about advertising, surveillance and AI slop. Not having a Proton Drive app for Linux makes it hard to abandon Windows completely.

Now I've switched totally to Linux (Fedora) and thus become very important to have a native Linux Client for Proton Drive. I'll try Rclone in the " hacker spirit" of a Linux user but I'll approciate such a developemnt for the lazy ( beginner) Linux user

GUYS !!!!

Come on, its getting ridiculous, when is this getting implemented ??

This was a huige oversight on my part when i signed up for family account. I saw phone apps and assumed desktop apps were already covered. How doesn't proton drive have a desktop app yet?

Hurry up with this already! I made the switch away from Microsoft recently, and this really important. Why do you waste time on docs and photos when basic functionality of one of your core products is missing.

Poor form, Proton!

Self explanatory. Dropbox enables users to have a desktop copy of their file tree so that files, pdfs, images and photos are easily accessible from all programs. There's no reason Proton shouldn't do this, and in fact I'm now sorry I moved my personal stuff from dropbox to here. Guess I won't be moving my business files anytime soon. This is ridiculous.

How do you guys just keep chugging past this? Why is it not started. Docs (I don’t need), photos (okay whatever).

No effective Linux client, without doing backflips.

Visionary, for now. Hoping you’ll get this squared away, before an another viable competitor does.

Your paying customers (I’d wager) are nerds like us…

Make this happen: YESTERDAY!

I've been using Proton for 6 years now, but I'm still missing full sync for Drive.

I use Linux (PCLinuxOS, which does not use systemD), but currently only save my most critical personal data, which I have to upload manually.

A sync client for Linux would really help me get rid of second-hand solutions for the rest of my data.

It is 2025. You need to support Linux. Time to get cracking Proton!

Even as a 2 year Proton Family subscriber I've been forced to make workarounds (syncing the families Linux boxes via unison to server running a windows VM with ProtonDrive ... which is a huge overhead on disk (have to have dual space for all the 3 TB of ProtonDrive Disk) and on system resources on the server... so we actually went for the Infomaniak Drive solution instead (kDrive) which also, for all platforms, do have much better document features via ONLYOFFICE) ... once our 2Y family subscription with Proton is about to run out we'll evaluate again and I really hope Proton by then is in a state that we stick to it rather than moving all services away from Proton. I do like Proton's dedication to privacy and their claims that you listen to the community ... but for us to stick around for another 2 years, you need to live up to listening to your users by providing the thing the community urges for most now: a Linux client for Proton Drive.

As so many others I'm in the transition from Windows to Linux, and I am currently a M365 family subscriber as both me and my wife use it, and in the future my four kids will too. However I would like to break my ties with Microsoft. My plan is first to make a dual boot windows/Linux and then buy Proton ultimate, and once I've transitioned, I will help my wife do the same. However I won't buy Ultimate and start the transition until a Linux client or API is made available. So if you want to have more paying customers, this is a requirement.

Not having Drive for Linux is a gaping hole in the current Proton ecosystem.

However, the recent announcement that Proton is building a Drive SDK is promising.

Please at least focus on getting the API released ASAP, so that others can write their own solutions to interface with Drive in an officially supported manner.

In my opinion, having an official client for Proton Drive would be a major competitive advantage for Proton, especially considering its target audience and the fact that Google and Microsoft currently do not offer official support for Linux. As a result, the community often resorts to alternatives like Dropbox or Mega.nz, just to name a few. Another option has been using unofficial clients, which can pose security risks or significant issues due to lack of maintenance or implementation errors. However, this tends to drive away regular users.

A flatpak client would suit the vast majority of LINUX users.

I see privacy as a whole. Someone who is willing to trade Google Workspace and Microsoft Office for Proton may also want or tend to consider migrating from Windows to Linux. In this scenario, having a Linux client would be natural for Proton. A flatpak, for example, could serve most of the community.

A Proton Drive Linux client would be great.

Please make a Proton Linux Client. I have seen more than one company which seems to forget about the linux user base and being a long time paying Proton Supporter it is really bad that ProtonDrive can not be used with a secure app from Proton.
For what do I need a sync service if it can only Sync to my Smartphone/Tablet but not to my Desktop OS. Make 2025 the year for your linux fan base instead of adding features like document editing etc. which are all not important for us running linux, when we can not get the basic and most important tasks done to put our files from the linux desktop into Protondrive.

Yes, I would very much like this feature to be available without having to tweak and install 3rd-party applications. I may try Rclone, but I'm reading that people are having mixed success. I was surprised that Proton Drive doesn't have a Linux client as I imagine many privacy-conscious users prefer Linux, as I do. Thank you.

A Proton Drive application or a proper way to use RClone (not working for me now) is desperately needed for Ubuntu/Linux! I'm still using Dropbox for those files I need synced all the time and I have a paid account for Proton!

I desperately need Proton Drive for Ubuntu Linux to completely say goodbye to Dropbox and sync my files to a secure location.

Very important
