  • From the AMA, someone suggested

    Yeah some Up/Download + simple management API would be really nice. Since Proton is loved a lot among programmers, I’m very sure there’ll be a lot of people in the community to create some implementation their own (including me)

    And Andy(CEO) replied

    This is actually good/important input. We went this direction with Proton VPN on Linux and the first version was a community built version which as OK. Eventually, we had to take the effort in-house to ensure it was sufficiently well maintained and keeping up with the latest features, but it was still a goo way to get started. We will indeed consider this for Proton Drive also, although it is a more complicated product (includes complex parts like sync engine and version conflict resolution logic, etc). -Andy

    Also, when pointed about Henry,Andy replied

    Yes, we know Henry, he should have access to the API specs/docs and he has a direct line of communication with us. -Andy

    So all hope is not i would say. And i would prefer rclone and apps based over than than electron wrappers tbh.

  • there are many interesting one’s for me this issue, mainly :

    • Drag and drop of folders will now work with sandboxed applications (Drop a folder from Nautilus onto Amberol)
    • In the works is accessing USB devices with per-device, per-app permissions.
    • Adding CSS variables support to GTK.
    • Grouping notifications by app in GNOME Shell.
    • CalDAV/CardDAV support in Gnome Online accounts.

    Hope we get many of these in coming few months.
