We asked for Linux native apps and collabrative office suites not this garbage.

Yes I am aware. Thats a great start but its pretty barebones and needs far more developement.

Linux needs linux developers

In honestly probably has too many Linux developers. I’d love to develop for Linux, but the job market is super competitive, so I work building web apps (hosted on Linux). I have the skills to hack on Linux things (I build desktop Linux apps for fun), there just aren’t many job opportunities.
If I could get paid something close to what I’m making now, but to work on FOSS, I’d do it in a heartbeat. But the options I see are:
I don’t have the energy for 1 and 2 won’t work for my family, so I go for 3.

OK get Linux developers then. we pay for the Software and they asked us what we want them to work on. This is one of the rare cases where Linux users can actually feel entitled to developer attention.

Except it’s cheaper to pay their existing non-Linux developers to do something than hire a team of new developers for Linux.

You might be surprised to find out that, just like everywhere else, Linux users are a minority among the Proton userbase.

I am just going based off the responses to their poll on their fourm.

They need a simple GUI on top of rclone. The madlads of rclone fucking reversed engineered the drive APIs in record time. Now imagine if they were to tosh some money into that project, and then could focus only in GUI.

They didn’t have to reverse engineer the drive API. Proton created an open source library to use their API, which was forked to integrate with Proton-API-Bridge, so that apps could easily use it.

There’s no api, or there was, when rclone implement it.
