Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS
please add support for Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS;
as of now, aliases to folders when copied to proton are converted to empty and useless "blank" files,
instead aliases to files (.doc, .pdf, ...) are initially actually aliases but they don't have the alias icon (with the lower left arrow) ...the problem is that they work only until the original is modified and saved (in the same location), then they become useless too!
another thing: files in proton drive loose the finder tags (which are a crucial part of the workflow of many mac users, me included),
I don't know if tags are lost upon uploading or when making the files available offline.

How on earth did you get aliases / symbolic links to work at all?
I got this error message when I tried to open an alias after I moved it to where I needed it:
Item (FOLDER NAME) alias is used by MacOS and can't be opened.

symbolic links seem to have different behaviour, they are not made available offline by proton but at least in some cases they seem to work
