Proton launches LLM and crypto wallet
Proton Wallet is an easy-to-use self-custodial wallet that makes financial freedom attainable for everyone.

We asked for Linux native apps and collabrative office suites not this garbage.
They need Linux developers to do that
Linux needs linux developers
Linux has developers. It just needs more desktop users.
Im trying!
It honestly probably has too many Linux developers. I'd love to develop for Linux, but the job market is super competitive, so I work building web apps (hosted on Linux). I have the skills to hack on Linux things (I build desktop Linux apps for fun), there just aren't many job opportunities.
If I could get paid something close to what I'm making now, but to work on FOSS, I'd do it in a heartbeat. But the options I see are:
I don't have the energy for 1 and 2 won't work for my family, so I go for 3. I do plan to do 2 once I have enough to not need my current income (current projection is about 10 years).
OK get Linux developers then. we pay for the Software and they asked us what we want them to work on. This is one of the rare cases where Linux users can actually feel entitled to developer attention.
Except it's cheaper to pay their existing non-Linux developers to do something than hire a team of new developers for Linux.
You might be surprised to find out that, just like everywhere else, Linux users are a minority among the Proton userbase.
I am just going based off the responses to their poll on their fourm.
They need a simple GUI on top of rclone. The madlads of rclone fucking reversed engineered the drive APIs in record time. Now imagine if they were to tosh some money into that project, and then could focus only in GUI.
They didn't have to reverse engineer the drive API. Proton created an open source library to use their API, which was forked to integrate with Proton-API-Bridge, so that apps could easily use it.
There's no api, or there was, when rclone implement it.
This backend uses the Proton-API-Bridge, which is based on go-proton-api, a fork of the official repo.
According to that page there was an official API library, provided by Proton. They forked it and added features, it didn't need to be reverse engineered.
This is an rclone backend for Proton Drive which supports the file transfer features of Proton Drive using the same client-side encryption. Due to the fact that Proton Drive doesn't publish its API documentation, this backend is implemented with best efforts by reading the open-sourced client source code and observing the Proton Drive traffic in the browser.
According you the page, no, you're still wrong.
Like this collaborative document editor they added a month ago?
Yes I am aware. Thats a great start but its pretty barebones and needs far more developement.
