Drive Linux
Please please release a linux sync client. I am a paying user and this entire feature is almost completely unusable for me. Please remind yourself where you come from and release also features for the community that supports you from the early proton times!

Bonjour, je suis d'accord avec vous. Je viens de passer de Windows à Linux et pas de solution sauf à aller ailleurs. A quand une version pour Linux ?

This is the only obstacle why I didn't migrate to proton since so many years.
Hey guys! You are talking about security and privacy, but the only operating system providing it is linux.
Wake up! Please! -

Glad to see that I'm not the only one having this thought. Paid for the unlimited plan too soon. Won't renew my subscription if I can't (in a user friendly way) back up files on Linux Mint.

I really thought this was the time to switch to Linux the way big tech companies have been exploiting our dependency on them. Proton drive not being supported on Linux is a major friction in my move away from microsoft, google and apple.

Proton wants to be a privacy based alternative to big tech giants but doesn't support the privacy based alternative OS???

Dear Proton,
After decades of discontent with Microsoft Windows, in January of this year I finally switched to Linux (Mint). I was however very surprised and disappointed to learn that Proton Drive does not work with Linux. I would appreciate it very much if you would work on this. Thank you. -

Vous communiquez sur l'interopérabilité de Proton avec toutes les plateformes (Windows, Android, Linux, etc...).
Je viens donc de passer à la version Unlimited de votre abonnement... et pas d'application Linux pour assurer la synchronisation pour Proton Drive.
Comment dois-je faire pour assurer cette synchro ?
Je suis furieux. -

As a Proton Family subscriber for many years I was always under the impression that Linux would be a priority for a privacy first company.
For my non technical family members and friends that I have recommended Proton in Linux to, I have sometimes employed workarounds like rclone/ celeste, because I thought that a full Linux client was very soon on it's way. I can not tell you how much pain this has caused.
Personally, I do not use Proton Drive at all, due to lacking Linux support; which means that Proton Drive does not add and value to my subscription, which makes it harder to justify.

I've gone "all in" with Ubuntu and the Proton Suite. I find Proton Mail and Pass for Linux just as good as what I used in Win10. VPN could use some polish. I am glad to have it though.

Its important, but just get a general way to mount a proton-drive into your file-system!

I am using the Proton App for Linux Mint, but now it tells me to download a new version. “A important update is available. To continue using the app, please update it to the latest version.”
On the website versions for Windows and Mac, Android and iOS are available. When will the updated Linux version be available? And will it have a drive sync option? -

I need Proton Drive for Linux (as a Flatpak, or, if possible, a native package for apt rpm and pacman)

I totally agree, I went on Proton with all members of my family to escape GAFAM like most people here I guess. Linux is generating increasing interest from many government agencies, companies, and citizens in Europe. Why isn't there a Proton Drive application for Linux that's at least on par with Proton VPN or Bridge?
