Indispensable !

The Proton team mentioned there are no browser libraries for ODT processing — odf-kit solves this. It's a pure JavaScript/TypeScript library (Apache 2.0) that reads and generates ODT files entirely client-side with no server required. https://github.com/GitHubNewbie0/odf-kit

I find that very sad. Not planned?

At least import from and export to ODT should be supported. With the other formats supported this should be an easy addition...

At least, there should be an option to import .odt files, not just .docx!
Again, the FOSS community is ignored, as in the case of a standalone app (Proton Drive) for Linux.

CollaboraOnline explains the importance of this request very clearly:

I have several clients looking for a way out of the MS/Google office duopoly. There is no way I can convince them to move away without a committment to open standards - this is a major blind spot in Proton's offerings. Some sort of triple-shuffle between Proton, Libre and Microsoft kind of misses the point, don't you think?

Definitely agree. Support .odt asap.

Yes, the proprietary Proton document format is simply a bad idea. Not everyone uses Proton!

For all of us who are running Linux and using LibreOffice (or any other open source office documents package), it is absolutely essential to support (create/preview/save as) ODF (not only .odt, but also .ods and .odp) within Proton Drive!

I feel that it is important to be able to open your docs that are synced with your laptop when you are on the move.

Super important, especially for people trying to get away from generic big tech but have been surrounded by generic brands like Microsoft and Google (Drive) their entire lives.

Alternatives to big tech programs exist, but they also should be accessible on platforms like Proton Drive!

This is important both for exporting from Docs and to generate previews from odt documents in Drive.

ODF is to documents what the E-Mail standard is to communication. Proton should supprot it 100%

Yet another proprietary document format is a complete non-starter for my team and our clients. I won't use and won't recommend Proton Drive as a replacement for Google or MS One drive for clients that want to use collaborative web editing.

Completely agree with this. .odt format is preferable for me as some applications on my phone won't let me edit the document if its in .docx format, whereas if it is in .odt format they work great, hence I believe it would be a great way to improve compatibility.

Proton Docs should definitely use open document as default. Being able to export to other formats is a good feature but the default format is the most important thing. Using its own file format the same way Google does makes me chose Microsoft Onedrive instead. They let you chose default file format (Microsoft's or Open Document) when creating documents.

I use exclusively Linux for all my work and .ODT format is very important for me. Not being able to at the very least view the content with Proton Docs means I cannot use this feature.
