I wish it were easier to use Protondrive to share password protected photos with people without Proton accounts.
If image previews were added to the folder share today, then my friends and family would see how convenient and user-friendly Proton Drive is, and they would all want to sign up.

Yes - especially for users who are not logged in. I have many friends and family who do not use any Proton services. I wish they preview images and videos for password-protected folders that I share with them!
For my friends and family who go on trips together all the time and need a place to upload photos afterwards, Google Photos is the go-to solution. I would love to replace it with Proton Photos.
There are a few things which keep Google Photos sticky IMO:
- We assume everybody in the group already has a Google account so uploads are frictionless
- We like to get together after the trip and view the slideshow on a large TV together and Google Photos has a really nice interface for going through an album with several hundred photos
- Sharing, commenting, and liking of specific photos within an album
The biggest challenge to Proton Photos adoption by groups of families and friends is the requirement that people need Proton accounts to upload the photos in the first place. People I'm trying to convert don't want to go through the process of signing up when they already have an inbox (Google) they are happy with. If Proton can provide a low-commitment, pleasing user experience to non-registered users, these people are much more likely to create an account in the future.
From a cryptographic standpoint, can we think of clever ways for Proton Photos to be engaging to people without Proton accounts? The ability to preview password-protected albums before downloading is one great example of this and it was announced as an upcoming feature on /r/protondrive last week.
