My computer is not supported by Windows 11. As such, since Windows 10 is no longer supported by October, I either need to buy a new computer, or switch to Linux.

As my computer still works fine, I decided to switch to Linux.

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be Linux client for Proton Drive.

This would be a critical functionality for me to keep my paid account.

Therefore, I support the call for the development of a Linux client for Proton Drive; especially since I can imagine many users are in the same situation with the phase out of windows 10.

Are not there a rout map on this important development?

Why this isn't a thing yet? what they are wating!
is 3772 votes not enough for them or what

The main thing preventing me from opening my wallet.

Quite amazed that is is just mentioned as something that might be based on an macos sdk that may be open sourced in the future...

We need a client to sync files in linux desktop and should be a decent one like Mega client.

I'm currently switching from Goolge Drive/Photos & Amazon Photos to Proton. I pay for the service and like it in general, but a linux client would be very welcome! Maybe Proton could at least give some updates on if they're considering it or whats holding them back!

No dedicated linux client is a dealbreaker for me. I want to ditch MS OneDrive, even if that means I'd have to pay more.

I want to get rid of US suppliers as much as possible and therefore chose Proton. For the OS, I am going to use Linux (Mint) and need a link to Proton Drive for that. So herewith an urgent request to develop an app for this. I am sure that given the current circumstances, there is or will be more need for this.

Proton Drive Client for Linux:
Very Critical.

Thanks for combining all the issues - now can we get some action please?

Filen.io just works. Trying to use the web app in Linux is next to impossible. I decided that I wasn't going to waste a lot of time using it or waiting on a Linux client from Proton.

I considered sevaral of the other solutions available that had Linux clients. They either didn't match my minimum requirements (cross platform, open source (enough), end-to-end encrypted, etc., or when I tried them by getting monthly subscriptions and trying them, they just didn't work very well. Some were just terrible.

I finally tried Filen.io. You can mount the drive or you can sync a local folder on multiple devices. As with anything, you have to figure things out - no problem. Filen.io is quite stable and just works.

So, I've found a solution that works and that's quite reasonably priced. In fact, its seems to work better than Proton Drive on platforms that have a Proton Drive client. Would I prefer that Proton provide a Linux client? Yes. Am I going to remember that they didn't and disregarded the Linux users? Yes. Am I going to be in a hurry to switch to a Proton Drive Linux client when it becomes available? No. Am I going to consider all of this when my current Proton subscription is up for renewal? YES!

The second most voted Idea and proton dev just ignored it! Do they even care about what they're users says?? What is wrong with them!!

Moved from W10 to Arch (Garuda). Accessing everything from the web interface (download, work, re-upload) is a short term work around but I need a long term solution to keep using proton Drive.

CLI / GUI, anything?

Here are a few reasons to implement a Proton Drive Linux Client as soon as possible:

1. Linux is more committed to privacy and freedom than Windows and macOS that already have Proton Drive clients.

2. Support for Linux with RClone https://rclone.org/protondrive/

3. Projects like Celeste support Proton Drive, demonstrating that this can be done: https://github.com/hwittenborn/celeste

4. Other Proton products already work in Linux, like the Proton VPN application.

5. Customers preservation. I have been a client of Proton Drive from the start. However, I have considered using https://filen.io/ and reduce my Proton subscription. I used to recommend Proton Mail to many friends and family. Now I cannot recommend Proton products to my friends, because many of them use Linux.

6. Proton Drive is ignoring a great community. Why ignore and forget one of the biggest communities in the history of technology. What is the benefit of this?

7. Windows requirements. Windows 11 forced many users to switch to Linux, many of them in the technology sector. This can happen again?

8. Client side scanning with AI. Windows Recall, client side scanning, telemetry, etc. All this products and features affecting privacy. Linux does not affects users privacy.

If all this make sense, please explain why a Linux Client for Proton Drive is not available yet?

Ciao a tutti, I join the call to implement in Linux not only Proton Drive synchronization but all Proton applications that should be fully compatible with Linux systems especially for users who have nothing to do with Windows, Mac and Google Android operating systems anymore

Proton Drive Client for Linux, please and thank you! Very Critical.

This must be a priority. Otherwise I will need to switch to another service.

Yes, a desktop client for Linux is needed. I am a new linux user trying to migrate away from Windows. I was able to sync my old laptop with proton drive, and now I cannot since I changed to linux os.

I see that this thread was posted years ago. PLEASE PLEASE develop a proton drive desktop client for Linux

About a year ago, I switched from Tutanota and Tresorit to Proton, mainly because of the extra features it offered—like aliases, more storage, and so on. Around eight months ago, I moved to Linux, and that’s when I realized I’d made a big mistake. How can a company with such a large Linux user base not have a proper desktop app? I just can’t wrap my head around it.

After months of relying on the browser—manually downloading files and reuploading them—I’ve had enough. My subscription ends in about seven months, and after that, I’m done. It’s obvious the Linux community is big enough to justify proper support, but instead, Proton keeps rolling out features that should really be lower on the priority list.
