- weezing 4mo agoStill waiting for Drive for Linux.
- mrkn1 4mo ago+1

- neobrain 4mo agoThey are hiring specifically for that: https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonDrive/comments/1spx14d/proton_is_hiring_a_linux_desktop_employee_for/ https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonDrive/comments/1spx14d/proton...
- latentsea 4mo agoSo much this.
- teekert 4mo agoSometimes yes. But with Meet? No. I was really waiting for this! I actually appreciate how they balance features and new products. They are becoming more credible MS365/Google Workspace alternatives with every step.
- setsewerd 4mo agoI might be an outlier here in caring about this product but I really want Proton Docs to get optimized better, it takes way too long to load. Google docs may not be private but it takes <1 second to load when I click the browser bookmark, vs 11 seconds to load a Proton document. 11-second load time for a page is a lot of friction in 2026, no matter how secure your product is.
- Imustaskforhelp 4mo agoThe thing I am interested in proton docs is if it can have API functionality. Proton docs allow anonymous users to write things and I wish if there was an API functionality, then people can use it to create anonymous/(pseudonomous?) comments and hose those comments as a comment engine and many other interesting things like creating forms themselves on it. I would love to build on proton but Alas the API isn't open source and recently with Proton meet and its controversy, my trust on proton has shifted a bit too which dampened my enthusiasm in all of this. (To make the API I even used puppeeter instances to do it, and after quite a long time I was able to succeed actually but that's just not scalable)
- CaninoDev 4mo agoMaybe that exposes a security vector they aren’t comfortable with yet?
- port11 4mo agoCould it be you’re using Chrome with the offline Docs extension? On Brave and without the extension, Docs isn’t nearly as fast for me — even if Proton remains slow. I also wish I could afford Proton as a non-pro user…
- jszymborski 4mo agoIt would be really cool for them to get read/write calendar sharing on Proton Calendar to finally work on iOS. It's a huge pain, but just self-hosting a CalDAV server is still a better solution because I can actually share calendars. https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1bptl3c/shared_calendars_in_ios_app/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1bptl3c/shared_...

- ekjhgkejhgk 4mo agoWanna tell us what are the missing features on their existing products?
- jonpacker 4mo agoFor a start, you can't edit docs on mobile. But if you just use it for a while you notice there's a fairly large amount of bugs which need working on. Try entering a couple of dates and using their autofill to extend the sequence... it's pretty comical.
- prism56 4mo agoAgreed. I just need to be able to search my calendar on my phone...
