I tried rclone and it freaked out at regular ping intervals and instead deleted everything on the drive. GG. I want to like you Proton but your decisions of late are ASTHENATE. I wouldn’t have minded the crypto wallet release if basic features on the core apps were remotely coherently finished. The AI writer add on for a local model doesn’t even work on Firefox. For people supposedly embracing the FOSStyle, this isn’t the way. /rant

The did explain in a blog post that AI integration was one of the higher requested features. And with an electron client, it’s easy to roll out to all platforms.

A drive client for Linux would need to be specifically developed and could not be reused for other platforms.

But yes, I would love a Drive client for Linux. I’ve recently started moving to Proton and can’t make use of Drive without it.

Linux-compatible requests are literally some of the top 5 requests across all apps.

Yes but for 6% of the userbase. It’s frustrating but I can understand them prioritizing other features.
