eh, protondrive’s pricing is absolute insanity though, the profit margins are madness:
piclike i can get a 6 terabyte office plan for £80 a year (ends up being ~£6 pounds a month), as well as a mullvad subscription, and i’ll still have 14 pounds left over… per month. So im saving money, and i’m getting twice the storage.
You can still use onedrive in a privacy respecting manner as well, just use cryptomator.
Even though this is a nice development, I’m pretty disappointed in the resources directed at Linux support. I’m considering dropping Proton soon.
I agree, the VPN app is just awful, and now drive will take forever to arrive on Linux, probably with a half assed version too.
I don’t know what they have multiple apps, just create one app for everything, mail and calender bridge and sync. A VPN makes sense to be separate, but that can be included too.
Though mail + Simplelogin + VPN(just using the wireguard config) is a killer combination, now with Pass being almost ready to use, proton Unlimited is a very good subscription.
Linux? When?
Article says:
We’re also beginning the beta for our upcoming macOS desktop app for Proton Drive. […] Once the macOS app is released, we’ll also work on our planned Linux version.
Based on Proton’s trackrecord in development times I’ld say a far future, but I must admit they’ve been making meters lately when it comes to releasing stuff. It may be sooner than expected (or it might take years, we’d have to wait and see).
