    I'm very glad that Proton provides a Linux app. Thank you, and please don't stop. It's a big improvement over a web interface, especially since for privacy I automatically wipe all my cookies.

    As things currently stand, upgrading the Proton Mail app takes so much work that for a long time I ignored the updates:

    * I click on the update banner in the app.
    * Then I log into 1Password.
    * Then I put my username and password into Proton.
    * Then I do 2FA for Proton.
    * Then I click on Mail, and wait for all the redirects and loading to happen.
    * Then I click on the gear icon.
    * Then I click on "Get the Proton Mail apps".
    * Then I select ".rpm for Fedora / Red Hat"
    * Then I click "Download".
    * Then I open a terminal:
    ```
    cd ~/Downloads
    sudo dnf install ./ProtonMail-desktop-beta.rpm
    ```

    Having the RPM provided via a yum repo would make it much easier to stay updated, since most of those steps would be skipped.
