As mentioned in the previous update on this feature, it is now being edited to be a request for slides.
Please feel free to undo your vote if this is not something you want included in Proton Drive.

Comment how you feel about this.

An error occurred while saving the comment Summary:
Proton should offer a privacy-respecting method for users to verify whether their recovery phrase matches their current account setup—without exposing data or compromising encryption.Details:
Currently, users have no way to confirm if their recovery phrase is still valid after regenerating it. This creates a risk: if someone accidentally deletes the new phrase and the old one is no longer valid, the user may be locked out with no warning.A simple verification tool in Settings → Security could allow users to input their recovery phrase and receive a confirmation (yes/no) on whether it matches their current encrypted key. This could be done locally in the browser using zero-knowledge cryptography—similar to how password managers verify master passwords without storing them.
This feature would:
• Help users avoid catastrophic lockouts
• Respect Proton’s privacy-first architecture
• Require no server-side access to user data
• Be especially useful for users who rotate recovery phrases or manage multiple devicesTL;DR:
Proton should add a secure, local-only tool to verify whether a recovery phrase is valid for the current account—without revealing or accessing any user data. -

An error occurred while saving the comment PROTON TEAM! I understand that this is a mega post which is not allowed anymore. It was allowed when I posted this.
I have created a set of smaller posts that link to each other: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932842-lumo/suggestions/50637308-1-lumo-live

Dear Proton Community and Development Team,
We, the undersigned, propose the introduction of a "Screwdriver Tier" that allows users to leverage Proton's world-class encryption and UI while hosting the physical data on their own hardware. This "Bring Your Own Storage" (BYOS) model would transform Proton into a secure bridge for private infrastructure.
1) The "Screwdriver" (Self-Hosted) Tier:
Private Storage Nodes: Allow users to connect local NAS (Network Attached Storage), home servers, or massive external drives to the Proton Drive ecosystem via an encrypted tunnel.
Proton as the Interface: Use the official Proton Drive web and mobile apps to browse, share, and manage files that are physically stored in the user's living room rather than the Swiss bunker.
Zero-Knowledge Tunneling: Proton manages the "handshake" and the encryption keys, ensuring the data is never unencrypted on the public web, but the "bucket" remains the user's property.
2) The Hybrid Business Model:
Software Subscription Fee: Users pay a flat monthly fee for access to the Proton "Guard" (the encryption software, the secure tunnel, and the UI) without needing to rent massive amounts of server space.
Infinite Scalability: The storage limit is defined by the user's hardware. If I plug in a 20TB drive, my Proton Drive reflects 20TB of space.
Justification & Benefits:
Market Pioneer: Proton would be the first major privacy company to offer a seamless bridge between "Self-Hosting" (which is currently too complex for most) and "Cloud Privacy" (which is currently too expensive for mass storage).
Reduced Overhead: Proton significantly lowers its electricity and server maintenance costs in the K7 bunker while maintaining a steady, high-margin revenue stream from software subscriptions.
True Sovereignty: This perfectly aligns with Proton’s mission of digital freedom, allowing users to own their keys AND their "granite."
Let us provide the hardware; you provide the Swiss Guard!
