I was surprised to find out that, not only is there no Linux client for Proton Drive, but there is an active discouragement by Proton to try and use other methods to incorporate Drive into the Linux ecosystem.
I am moving from non-private operating systems (MacOS and Windows 11), a non-private cloud storage solution (OneDrive) and a non-private e-mail account (Gmail) to their private equivalents (Linux, Proton Drive and Proton Mail)... and then I find that that there is no support from Proton to make this transition seamlessly.
There are third party attempts at solutions, such as rclone, but it appears that Proton is actively blocking or hindering their use. Maybe there are good reasons for this to which we are unaware, but then please provide a solution so that we can finally make the jump.
Proton prides itself on providing a platform for privacy, but the current platform is broken. We need a fix.
