To Sync Proton Drive in Linux (Debian, Ubuntu)
Is it possible (or will it be possible) to mount Proton Drive as a remote drive on Linux (for example using sshfs)?

I just saw that rclone has beta-support for Pronton Drive :-) ...
https://rclone.org/protondrive/
might be possibly to do something nifty in combination with unison :-)

I'm having 3 domains and 2TB of Drive space with Google today and I use it, among other things, to keep a number of file systems on different hosts in sync at all times. Most importantly to me is to keep the linux hosts in sync. I use inSync (3rd party app) to accomplish this but t does unfortunately not yet support Proton. One idea might be to work with inSync to help them integrate Proton Drive?!?
If it was possible to sync Proton Drive with Linux I would switch from Google to Proton in a blink. I would very much prefer a head-less (non-GUI) app and am happy to help with development and/or be a beta-tester of such apps to help speed up the development.
A linux app for Proton Drive is essential for me to take the step to sign up for a 24 month Proton Family subscription and start the process of switching over everything from Google ....

Not support for Linux? I have been migrating to proton, but this is making me unable to proceed with migration, and thus not upgrade to a paid plan. Just sayin..Otherwise Very happy with protons other clients for linux.

A lack of Linux support makes leaving the google sphere prohibitively difficult

I need this function to drop Google Apps

Please let me sync Ubuntu with Proton Drive.
The only reason I use Protonmail is because I do not trust Windows, Google or Apple. -

I would prefer rclone, but any solution would do.

This would be the ultimate feature that would get me using Proton Drive more consistently. It's a bit of a barrier for me to download the file, manage it, then re-upload. If I could open/sync across all of my devices from a mountable remote drive, that would be perfect

I would upgrade to the 9,99 plan. :)

This was made on Aug 27, 2022 it's been nearly two years, what a shame.

It is getting ridiculous how Proton treats Linux-based systems (the OS' that unlike Windows, don't make joke out of privacy) as a mere afterthought.

Not having a way to use drive with Linux is a major failing. I see this has been open for 2 years. If you want to retain linux users you need to give it, at least, equal priority.

Anyone who wants to use / migrate to a Linux OS including Linux Mint, will want this feature 110% -

I'm new to Proton and love it so far but as of 4/19/2024 no Proton Drive support for Ubuntu is unreal. Its a show stopper for me!!!

100% This NEEDS to happen! I just got hooked up to the family plan running 100% Debian based OSes. Would love to migrate my data to proton drive.

Guys I'm crying.
I need to sync my data between working computer and private computer, different folders.
Currently on my private computer I have to always drop entire folder with my files to proton drive in browser in order to sync all the diffs..
Agree, it takes too much resources on your API side when I'm doing this.
Please port your MacOS app to Ubuntu -

More Linux support is very much welcome.

Having access to files on my Linux file system synced to Proton Drive would be great.

Hey Proton, would you like to have more paid accounts and with a higher plan? Do the Fk Linux clients ;)
