Trust
Don’t just take our word for it—you can inspect our apps yourself and see that your privacy is built-in by design.

Really hope this leads to a proper Linux client soon. If mega can do it I have high hopes for proton.
Any idea how to be notified of such release were to happen? Not sure who is “mega”.
Edit: don’t onow how but I misread the message entirely, so disregard
Not sure who is “mega”
Gosh, I feel so old now
Ah now I recall
Get a Proton account, you can then sign up for, or disable, various email notifications.
Another cloud service provider. I’ve been hoping to switch away from them for the past year or so since proton drive is included with my proton subscription.
I thought for a sec mega would implement drive for linux for proton. I remember the cloud service now, misread your comment
Does this mean the RClone integration can be improved?
It feels a little hacky right now, and as I previously learned when I last recommended it does not do things like image thumbnails which turns people away.
But are they libre software?
I pinky-promise, I’ll switch to proton from Google. Just maybe next month?
