It's frustrating that this isn't a native feature since rclone is unreliable and often stops working due to too many login attempts. If there is no plan for a native linux client at least work with rclone to make the connection reliable.

And another paying customer that could really use this feature, also for business use. Ubuntu LTS

Another paying customer that could really use this feature. Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS

I'm using Celeste as a workaround on Linux Mint but is not as good as native app on Windows 10.

Need CLI rclone type capabilities for Linux, this is critical top #1 missing feature for this paying customer.

I am a linux only user. Without a viable solution (previously rclone) my subscription becomes 99% useless..

This is really needed. Windows as an OS is broken and Linux is the only real somewhat European alternative.

Would be a reason to switch to Infomaniak.

I just got rid of Microsoft and Google completely. Alternatives for everything. Except Proton Drive... Was happy with Proton Unlimited until today. Not being able to use Proton Drive on Linux is a reason for me to stop using Proton

I do really need this feature: I have been waiting for it some years

Could it be the "same" bridge in order to not have to run mulitple bridges ?

This is the one thing which I desperately need and is a top 1 critical feature for me. I hope the Linux Client will come soon!

i;d pay extra for this option

Another day, another instance of rclone bisync getting broken and unusable. If you're not gonna release a standardized API, make a Linux native app. Refusing to make a first-party app but also disallowing third-party makes it seem an awful lot like you don't actually care about the second-highest requested feature in the entire Proton Suite. C'mon.

I seriously don't get it. The whole point of using Proton Drive is privacy, right? And that's exactly why so many of us are on Linux in the first place. What truly privacy-focused person is still on Windows these days? If someone's fine with Windows, they're probably just using OneDrive or Google Drive anyway. I'm betting the general Linux vs. Windows market share doesn't even come close to reflecting how big Linux is among your actual users. The overlap has to be massive. Do you guys not see that? It's baffling that this isn't at the top of your priority list. If any service screams for a native Linux client, it's yours.

With so many people switching over to linux these days this is becoming a necessity at this point. I have all my projects and everything i need working except for getting proton drive. It's not exactly fun booting over to windows just to sync files

I would have updated to a larger drive, but proton drive is useless to me without sync on linux.

This is getting ridiculous, considering you are getting requests daily, but chose to focus on other products

I can barely wait for it! 🙏

Why is there time to launch new products such as Lumo, Wallet, Meet, Authenticator, and Pass, but no time to enhance existing products like Drive and Calendar?

I don't give a **** about AI, private and secure or not, and will not use it. The impact on the environment alone is plenty of reason to steer clear of AI.

I've been using Bitwarden for many years, and use it to share credentials with friends and family. Pass is of zero use to me.

There are so many authenticator apps out there, do we really need yet another one?

I equally don't care about crypto. It's niche, and far less useful than an app that lets me access my cloud files on Linux. Drive is pretty useless to me. I've been on Linux exclusively since 2001.

It's ridiculous that this request has been open since June 2022, and now, near the end of 2025, Linux users are still unable to use Drive in a meaningful manner. Access via a browser is NOT meaningful.

It's time for Proton to pay some serious attention to Linux users. Our money is as good as that of Windows and macOS users, yet we're being treated as if we don't matter.

As a long-term Visionary user, I've been sending you a significant chunk of money over the years, and in return I don't think it's too much to ask for a Linux client for Proton Drive, and I don't mean a half-baked one like Proton VPN for Linux, which is mediocre at best, and frequently causes issues, unlike the NordVPN and Mullvad clients for Linux.

Calendar and Contacts are equally useless on Linux, and the desktop in general, as there is no way of accessing them from apps like Kontact, Evolution or Thunderbird.

Calendar also lacks proper support for cross-timezone entries, making it pretty useless for travellers.

Without a Linux client for Drive, my Visionary plan doesn't exactly offer much value for money, with only Proton Mail being fully useful via the Bridge, and Proton VPN limping along with its cobbled together Python/GTK app (where's support for Qt/Plasma?).

As I've suggested in the past, why don't you team up with the dev of EteSync, a reliable E2EE solution to sync contacts, calendar, tasks between Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Linux. And as a bonus, it can even be self-hosted!

Come on Proton, you really can, and ought to, do better than this.
