Yes, Proton Drive for Linux is currently not being actively worked on - Lemmy.World

Thought i would share this with you all: I contacted Proton for a technical issue and decided to also ask about their plans for Drive for Linux. Their response: > Proton Drive on Linux: Regarding the availability of a Proton Drive client for Linux, this is a common feature request that many users have expressed interest in. Our team is aware of the growing demand for a Linux client. While we currently do not have an ETA for when a Linux client might be available, we have not ruled out the possibility of working on it in the future. I’m very disappointed, since i’m probably going to switch to Linux over the weekend.

Yeah this is so annoying… I hate the focus they have, has me thinking of also not throwing all eggs in one basket with these services…

Come on guys give them a break. You dont have to use their services if you dont want, but they do a variety of things and they do them well. You can still use Drive through a browser.

But their whole sales pitch is the privacy community. Of course if you care about privacy you will be using Linux and not Windows or MacOS.

Proton is super easy to use. They are a gateway drug into privacy. Its close enough to google for any pleb to use. If you are using linux, then you probably dont need to be airplane spoon feed privacy.
