@geography082 @forerunner That might force Proton's arm to permit advertising (other than Proton pushing their own products).

@GrappleHat @Reverendender So many sites assume individuals who use a VPN are up to no good.

Some may be.

Most people though are just trying to draw the curtains so the creeps hiding in the bushes are less likely to see in.

@abobla Thanks for telling us why the delay for a Proton Drive client!

@Dave Thank you. I agree with you 6% is a small percentage. The problem is Linux users don't mind swimming upstream. They dropped M$ (not acceptable in today's business climate of conform or die). They're vocal.

There are other solutions to the problem. Proton is aware of these complications, yet they persist in refusing to make a Linux client for Proton Drive. Worst, they won't say why. The Linux community is watching and searching for a solution...not silence.

@Dave @fossilesque Are there (secure) alternatives to a Proton provided Drive application on Linux?

@Forbo @forerunner ...OR tell us why it won't happen.

@reallyzen Relunctantly, I have to agree, but we only know one side of this story. Companies tend not to reveal reasoning in any detail when defending themselves. Sometimes they even deliberately mislead. As a result, it's not likely anyone will *know* how truthful any response would be - all we can do is ask the question.
