I tried rclone and it freaked out at regular ping intervals and instead deleted everything on the drive. GG. I want to like you Proton but your decisions of late are ASTHENATE. I wouldn’t have minded the crypto wallet release if basic features on the core apps were remotely coherently finished. The AI writer add on for a local model doesn’t even work on Firefox. For people supposedly embracing the FOSStyle, this isn’t the way. /rant

    I have never seen a cloud location mounted and usable. Definitely want to do a proper sync where files are stored locally!

      @Dave It actually works quite nicely with Tresorit. And the latency lag is acceptable.

      I’ve been doing this via Rclone + Jotta Cloud with Rclone encryption, which still works better than Rclone + Proton Drive. But not as smooth as Tresorit. Rclone + Backblaze B2 + encryption is also better than the Proton Drive approach.

      I’ve also used this approach in read-only mode with @borgmatic too, which is a great way to restore data from a backup. And that’s almost as smooth as Tresorit (even though a very different use case).
