The link right here goes to 40:02 of Proton’ boss on the TLE channel about Linux support, where a Drive Client is deemed so difficult to achieve that they don’t even have a roadmap for it. Nor is the word “Linux” featured anywhere on proton’s pages about Drive.

coughdropboxcough

If I believe what I see on Lemmy, 99% of users here are on Linux, and the 1% remaining probably are just waiting on a Drive Linux Client to make the switch, right? Right?

Please take the survey and maybe mention politely our deep sorrow and profound distress.

Thanks!

    I know about this but it sucks for several reasons:

    • This doesn’t use the proton vpn client

    • You need to setup configuration files for each country you wish to connect

    • You configure a server directly, you can’t just connect to “France” and have the client choose the server with the least load

    • You can no longer select a random country, you have to introduce the randomness yourself

    • You have to manage configurations like kill switches on your own, since you’re no longer using the proton client

    It’s certainly a viable option, but why must linux users have all these drawbacks? :|
