Hi everyone,

We’re relentlessly working to improve Proton Drive’s performance across all platforms thanks to your valuable feedback.

This week ends with an update in Proton Drive’s encryption that increases single file upload by 140% on the macOS app.

If you haven’t already, you can download the Proton Drive macOS app here: https://proton.me/drive/download.

We recognize that we still need to address other optimizations and fixes. This improvement is yet another step in our commitment to deliver reliable, fast, and secure apps for you.

    I use ProtonVPN on both Linux and Windows and the difference is night and day… well… more accurately only on Windows because it doesn’t even launch on Linux… this what made me not invest much time on other Proton products ( because I know they’re going to suck on Linux )

      I use protonVPN on my Fedora laptop and works without a problem. Offcourse the UI and feel feels outdated, but hey it works! Its just sad that the rest of the protonvpn apps (win, Mac) looks&feel better.

        Thank you, it worked on Fedora… and it works way better than the app, the app used to disconnect every now and then, but this method doesn’t, interesting

          Im happy i helped :) keep in mind free tier accounts dont allow torrenting or other peer to peer activity so if u do that it will start behaving oddly and your terminal will spit out large texts warning you to stop
