Add Shared Folders to Proton Drive Sync
My wife and I fully utilize the Proton sharing features across the platform. We share files in Proton Drive, but the biggest gap for us is not being able to sync shared folders/files (using Proton Drive Sync for MacOS). The only way we can access the files that have been shared is through the Proton Drive web application.
Why is it so important that we be able to sync using MacOS?
Because we heavily utilize the MacOS Spotlight feature to find specific files that contain specific search terms in the body of the document. For reasons we understand, this feature cannot be made available in Proton Drive (the web application or mobile applications). However, we use MacOS Spotlight to deliver what Proton Drive cannot. As such, it is imperative that we be able to sync shared folders to MacOS,

On creation of a Proton Family account, automatically generate a shared folder where all members of the group will have access. Allow the group admin to adjust the size of the shared space and to adjust read/write/delete permissions of each individual family member..
The current method of sharing via links and passwords is cumbersome.
