Show HN: Proton Drive for Linux

https://oss.lsantos.dev/proton-drive-linux-fs/
33•khaosdoctor•1d ago
Hello everyone, I wanted to share this small project that I have. It's born out of a necessity that I had, because Proton doesn't ship a Linux version of the drive yet (it's apparently coming out later this year but who knows?) and all the current solutions are hacky and wonky at best. But for the time being I really needed to mount my Proton drive on my Linux machine the way I mounted it on my Mac, so I (and my faithful AI slave) did this small utility that allows you to mount your Proton Drive in a FUSE FS like if it is a local folder.

It's fully written in Go because Proton's drive SDK and API libs are all in Go, and there's a community project on top of the reverse engineered proton API there too. I am not a Go developer, I know the foundations, so of course I used AI quite a lot, I am not super proud of it, but I am using it daily and testing it myself for a few months before releasing here.

Hope you like it, feedbacks are welcome, just please be mindful of the person on the other side :)

There is no way I'm going to entrust my data to a vibe coded tool. Sorry man, you seem proud of it but it's a nonstarter for me.

well, scrap that

What does this offer over using rclone? If it’s not significant functionality, why not make pull requests there?

Proton Drive already has a CLI built with linux users in mind by the Proton AG team...

Why let things like "this thing already exists" get in the way of reinventing the wheel with AI?

Thanks for this. Been with Proton a while and they're not great at letting their customers know of new products. Either that or they are too successful at filtering their own marketing email.

To the OP: Proton is privacy first. I use their tools for a reason, trusting file transfer to a third party would never happen even with an open code base.

It's fine if the tool is for yourself, great for your CV and well done for shipping something. HN can at times be a cruel place, think of this as a learning experience.

> great for your CV

Caveat I am not a SWE. Is there any value in having AI developed tools on your CV?

A command line access tool is very different from a mounting tool.

I don't really care what you do with AI on your own computer for yourself but top tier irony sharing this around with this post on your blog: https://blog.lsantos.dev/en/backlog-10-slopware-the-end-of-w...

Last time I tried ProtonDrive(years ago), the speeds were complete dogshit, I could barely surpass 10 MB/s on a half gig fibre line. Anyone used it recently, and if so has it improved?

I’m not a customer and don’t know but IIRC they’ve been rewriting the storage API or whatever it is and it should resolve that exact problem.

Good on OP for being transparent with how it was built
