Just give me a Linux client for proton drive please. I'm tired of manually uploading/downloading files ๐Ÿ˜

Yeeeeees. If you're orienting your company as the privacy-alternative it'd be great to emphasize support for the main privacy-oriented OS. I get that developers don't grow on trees, but this seems like a pretty crucial feature that should be prioritized.

I mean, I recently switched to Proton knowing what I was getting into, but I'd really like to see this happen soon.

On the one hand, yes.

On the other, they're still a for-profit company and Linux users still make up a small portion of their customers.

They likely have a larger portion of Linux users then other companies though.

Meaningless information from a business perspective

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I don't think you have the insider information to really make that call.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

The only "Insider information" I have is a public interview with the CEO on a Linux creator's channel.

On their GitHub:

Supported cloud providers Celeste can currently connect to the following cloud providers:

Dropbox Google Drive Nextcloud Owncloud pCloud Proton Drive WebDAV

That's pretty cool all things considered I didn't think a 3rd party client could be made for drive

So I installed this and gave it a whirl. I was hoping it would work like the proprietary accounts in Linux where it would integrate into the OS but alas, it appears it's just a folder sync.

Aside from that I run into the same limitations I run into in the browser where file transfers just fail...

Sticking to OwnCloud and Immich for now...

I tried this before and it was very unreliable when used with WebDAV.
