About

Unofficial native Linux client for Proton Drive. Mounts your drive as a FUSE filesystem with an aggressive local cache, "always available offline" pinning, and a system-tray icon for GNOME, KDE Plasma, Budgie and Cinnamon.

Permissions

3 permissions weaken the sandbox. Flatsonar asks before installing.

  • all devices (/dev): webcams, disks, raw hardware
    --device=all
  • full access to your home folder
    --filesystem=home
  • your keyring / saved passwords
    --talk-name=org.freedesktop.secrets
  • inter-process communication (needed for X11)
    --share=ipc
  • network
    --share=network
  • X11 display, only when Wayland is unavailable
    --socket=fallback-x11
  • Wayland display
    --socket=wayland
  • GPU acceleration
    --device=dri
  • system tray
    --talk-name=org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher
  • notifications
    --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Notifications

Who publishes this

Nobody has confirmed that the publisher controls this app id. Flatsonar warns before installing.

  • me.proton.drive.Linux claims the domain drive.proton.me; only its owner can prove that
    publisher:namespace
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    build-options:--share=network
  • fetches from the network during the build (nothing to audit beforehand): cargo fetch --manifest-path Cargo.toml --verbose
    protondrive-linux:build-commands
