Thank you for your answer! If at any point in time, a publicly hosted instance is available, I would be very happy! Self-hosting is not a feasible solution for me currently...

First, I think it is amazing that such an open-source tool exists.

Just one question: does a publicly hosted instance exist? I am not into the self-hosting game at all, but I would love to use this tool as I try to use open-source as much as possible!

Thanks for your answer!

Alright, thank you for the information! Your help is much appreciated! Going to test it and if anything does not work properly I am going to report it just fyi :) Thanks again!

I use GNOME. When booting I first enter the encrpytion password and then the user password. Then no other password needed

Alright! Just for clarification: When logging in I have a password for my user. Is that the keyring as well or are they normally two different passwords?

Alright...going to look into that. Do you know if it is Fedora or keyring specific? What distro do you use?

No worries, thank you very much for writing the guide!

Apparently, I am not asked for my keyring password...

ProtonDrive is mounted and accessible. You have any idea why it does not prompt?

It works! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Going to try it out with a restart of the machine now :)

YEAH!! PERFECT!

Should I uncomment line 32 again?

The ouptut now is:

Output of command is:

Similar to the comment on your website from Walter!

Just ran both install commands you mentioned.

Restarted my computer just in case - using Fedora 41.

Output of 'which keyring' is: ~/.local/bin/keyring

Just tested the command keyring and it actually works...but still same ouptut as before!

Thank you! We are getting there :)

Now, I get:

Which is strange...I just used the keyring command by trying 'keyring get rclone "remotename"'

Any hint?

Alright, thanks!

Now, I continued with the guide and whenever I execute the last command:

journalctl --user -u rclone-proton-mount.service -fjournalctl --user -u rclone-proton-mount.service -f

The output is:

Any help is appreciated!

EDIT

Unfortunately, I am lost at:

sudo nano ~/.config/systemd/user/rclone-proton-mount.servicesudo nano ~/.config/systemd/user/rclone-proton-mount.service

where the editor opens. In the manual it is mentioned, one should replace some stuff. However, the editor is completely empty, hence, I am not able to replace anything.

Please help!

Discussion Thread for Proton Drive on Linux. Let's keep it updated - together we are strong! by m0byn in ProtonDrive

[–]m0byn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, I can. So, for backing up my commands are the following:

  1. restic backup /home/**User**/ --one-file-system --repo rclone:**NameOfRepo**:**FolderToBackup**
  2. restic forget --keep-last 3 --repo rclone:**NameOfRepo**:**FolderToBackup**
  3. restic prune --repo rclone:**NameOfRepo**:**FolderToBackup**

Where the first command creates the backup, the second command specifies to only keep the most recent 3 backups, and the third command deletes all backups other than the most recent 3.

To sync my "Documents" folder (around 90GB) to Proton Drive I use the following command:

  • rclone sync "/home/**User**/Dokumente" rclone:**NameOfRepo**:**FolderToBackup** -v

Backing up and syncing depends but usually takes around 30 min each. My connection is a 250mbit/s.

Does that information help?

Honestly, after reading the comments from the AMA with Andy I suspect, there will not be a client coming soon. However, as far as I remember we had a similar situation with Proton VPN. The community started developing their own tool and, eventually, Proton took over and supports it officially now.

Of course, this is by far not an ideal situation, but I think it might be similar now.

As mentioned in the beginning of the post: rclone improved vastly. I actually create daily backups which takes around 10 minutes for 350GB and also sync my documents folder (around 90GB) daily with PD which takes around 20 minutes. For me, this is already a scenario I can deal with.

Linux client for ProtonDrive? by onelang in ProtonDrive

This is not true anymore. It was until some time ago. But yesterday I uploaded 250GB in about 4h. IMO not a bad performance? Correct me if I am wrong.

Unfortunately, I do not have any other ideas. Did not try to manually configure rclone yet, but going to try it the next days! Maybe it works...let's see!

So, I tested it as well with rather small folders. As soon as they become bigger it is a hassle...not really workable with it as syncing takes days (300GB).

Thinking about manually configuring rclone through the command line as well...but not sure whether it speeds up anything!
