Morning, loving the new features. As many as asking for spreadsheet app, are you looking to make your own or team up with an existing software like libre and plug it into your eco system. Just thinking this might be a quicker way to achieve end results.

This would be great and I would be able to complete my move away from big tech companies

This would be fantastic. With this, I can finally completely leave Google's platform.

I see like most of the people that without sheet platform is more competitor. It should have basic stuff and step by step it will be possible to adapt to the needs of consumers.

I just discovered today that MS Excel Spreadsheets are not supported. That was a rude awakening.

A spreadsheet app is the only thing keeping me tied to the Google infrastructure.

This post specifies things like multi-user live collaboration, but I want to say that starting with a single-user spreadsheet would be an 80-20 solution which would solve for all my needs, and multi-user live collaboration could come later.

The suggestions about Grist below also seem great

Yes, would love to switch from Google Sheets.

Seconding and expanding on what Hacksterix commented on April 18 at 12:37 PM (two posts ago)…

Grist Labs' company ethos appears to be compatible with Proton's. With only about 10 employees currently and an estimated annual revenue under a million dollars [cf. https://compworth.com/company/grist-labs], they may be very receptive to acquisition by Proton.

The costs would probably be trivial at Proton's scale—probably just several million dollars, a pittance compared to the savings to Proton in R&D, the extensive value (note that Grist comprises a spreadsheet, a relational database, and much more, all in one integrated package), and the ROI that marrying it into Proton's suite would entail from the avalanche of conversions from Google Workspace defectors.

I agree; a spreadsheet edit function is a MUST. Proton ticks all the boxes except this one.

Critical, will move, also an integrated task system would be great!

Spreadsheet is a must-have feature in my opinion.

You should implement Grist. Python scriptable, a lot of awesome functionalities. We could leave google if we had a European solution.

Collab with LibreOffice?

I've moved to Proton. It's really simple and easy to use. Just missing a spreadsheet then it works as a complete replacement from Google Workspace (for an individual).

I will move from Google to Proton if they will add a simple spreadsheet editor

+1 to this - everyone in my extended family would be collectively making the jump to Proton Unlimited plans if this feature was in place. There's just too much work and family planning tied up in sheets right now, so this feature is critical to us.

Same here. We were about to go all in with Proton today for our company, but backed out in the last second because we don't know how to replace Google Sheets just like that.

I'm trying to leave the Google ecosystem. So far so good, spreadsheet is the last thing tethering me to Google.

I'll echo the many before me; add a collab Spreadsheet appliance. I can forgo a PowerPoint type app, but having a spreadsheet is about all that's keeping me from jumping out of the Google airplane.

I am attempting to use proton drive over google drive but not having access to some kind of data sheet application is a barrier.
