I’ve decided to leave Proton after being a user since 2017. Today, I migrated all my services to my new domain, marking the end of my time with Proton. The recent political noise and price point were no longer justifiable for me. It was a good experience while it lasted. Thanks for the fishes 🐟 🐠

    Google Drive doesn’t support Linux. Someone made a tool for it (RClone) which also happens to work with GDrive.

    And its fine if all the tools Proton provide aren’t for you. I use all of them except the crypto wallet.

    But it might be nice to have if one day i do use crypto.

      Google drive works with GNOME desktop, you add your Online Account in settings, and it integrates your calendar, Email, and maps a remote GDrive

        It’s a GNOME feature that’s not at all developed or supported by Google, but by another GNOME maintainer. That’s what I mean.

          Just a side note. Rclone is not the same as GNOME gdrive access. Rclone does a clone of the data to your local, GNOME gives you online access and you basically open from remote like using Seadrive client.

          My point being Proton could easily add same online account with GNOME help and do the same.

            And KDE and xfce and cinnamon and MATE and Budgie… where does it end?

            My point is that Google didn’t implement the feature. Someone else did.

            It’s up to the desktop environment’s maintainers or some other developer to implement this.

            But it would be nice to have if Proton provided it though, like they did with proton VPN. NGL.
