It's not just about a single issue, the company has changed significantly over the past 8 years. It has grown too large and now offers many products that I don't use. As a result, it no longer aligns with my needs, and I've decided to take more control, similar to when I stopped using Gmail. I'm not suggesting you should stop using it, I'm just making a personal choice that works for me.
I agree on the products thing. Bitcoin Wallet? WTF. While their staff says supporting drive sync on Linux is hard. (Yet seafile, and Google drive work on Linux)
Google does not support Drive on Linux.
If you add your Online Google Account to GNOME, it integrates your calendar, mail and adds a mapped Gdrive in Nautilus
Yes but that's not supported by Google. If your going to ding Proton Drive for not having a natove Linux client then you shouldn't tout Google Drive as a competitor who does, as they don't. You're giving Google Drive a free pass because of a third party. Google and Proton are the same on this feature and you should disparage both services equally as a result.
Google Drive doesn't support Linux. Someone made a tool for it (RClone) which also happens to work with GDrive.
And its fine if all the tools Proton provide aren't for you. I use all of them except the crypto wallet.
But it might be nice to have if one day i do use crypto.
