Proton has updated its Drive app and Docs, but Linux users are still waiting for a native Drive app.

    It’s a bit of a joke to have a supposed privacy company and then not have any support for Linux

          Wait what? I was just about to switch to Proton from gmail to avoid giving oligarchs more money and data?

          They really supported the fascists?

              Hey thanks! Massive list, do you have a personal short list? Main thing is I need lots of storage.

                I don’t think he use all those services. If you want storages with like > 1 TB you’ll probably want to set up your own NAS and make back ups. Currently I use StartMail, 30GB storage and if you ask my personal list I should say use them for their disposable email service if that is what you’re looking for. If you don’t bother having disposable emails I suggest go for Tuta/StartMail. Tuta has a friendly userface and 500GB storage, while StartMail has less storage but more options.

                  Thank you that simplifies things. Not sure I want to store everything local, but yeah that’s an option.

                  Although looking deeper into what I found, initially, potentially disturbing about Proton mail, I’m not sure I should rule it out yet.

      And to repeatedly fail to update their github with the latest source code for their mobile apps, and to not have their apps on f-droid, and to not support notifications of any kind on a degoogled android OS, and to not support monero payments, and to add a Zoom button to everyone’s calendar by default with no disclaimer about using Zoom, and to limit custom domain aliases.

        and to not support notifications

        Not supporting UnifiedPush is also another hilarious oversight.

        The people concerned this much with privacy are certainly less than 2%. They’re already in a niche market for the purpose of privacy. Not that much of a leap to support Linux (which by the way is likely higher than 2% of their user base.)

        it doesn’t make business sense to support 2% market share.

        It makes sense if you expect anyone to believe you support privacy.
