Hi everyone,
At Proton, privacy and transparency have always been our top priorities. Today, we’re happy to announce that all Proton Drive apps are now fully open source.

Why Open Source?
Transparency
You can now independently verify how Proton Drive safeguards your data.
Security
With the global community reviewing and improving our code, we benefit from innovative new security practices as soon as they’re available.
Trust
Don’t just take our word for it—you can inspect our apps yourself and see that your privacy is built-in by design.
We invite developers, security experts, and privacy advocates to explore, review, and contribute to our code on GitHub:

Yey!! Finally! Let’s see if we can do something about the Linux client
Ditto. I thought I’d finally found a good OneDrive replacement for my meager needs.
But are they libre software?
Does this mean the RClone integration can be improved?
It feels a little hacky right now, and as I previously learned when I last recommended it does not do things like image thumbnails which turns people away.
Hmmm…My current drive solution is not open source.
I’ll be looking into this. Very cool. Thanks!
There are very few companies where I feel the subscription fee I’m paying is really, really, worth it.
Proton is one of them.
