    5k+ votes and 1k+ comments strongly suggest unmet demand. Even limited conversion from this group would likely cover development costs quickly. Proton Drive on Linux is a strategic gap, not a niche request.

    I am a Proton Unlimited subscriber and I use Linux as my primary operating system for professional work.

    At present, the lack of a native Linux client with local synchronization represents a significant operational limitation compared to Windows and macOS. For professional workflows, reliance on the web interface or unsupported third-party tools is not a sustainable solution.

    Core business requirements such as automated sync, offline access, filesystem integration, and reliability cannot be met without first-class Linux support.

    Many professional users choose Proton precisely because its values around privacy, security, and transparency align naturally with the Linux ecosystem. In this context, Linux support for Proton Drive should be considered a strategic capability, not a niche feature.

    I would appreciate clarification on:

    whether Proton Drive for Linux is planned or actively being evaluated

    whether any form of prioritization or internal roadmap exists, even without specific dates

    Please note that the availability of an official Linux client would directly influence our decision to continue and expand our professional use of Proton Drive across multiple Unlimited accounts. In its absence, we are forced to evaluate alternatives that provide native Linux support.

    I bought a Proton Unlimited licence taking advantage of the 50% discount for this year just for tryng the services and to have only a provider for services that i need (mail, vpn and drive).

    I'm a linux user, no others OS, and for my use case its mandatory to have a Drive application for linux, otherwise i will unfortunatly have to chance service providers the next year when the licence cost will be full priced.

    Please! <3
