@Techaltar I think a fundamentalist has some things to complain about @protonprivacy .
I, for one, am very satisfied about the services and development, though the only thing I found confusing is the strong claim to open source and the delays in some cases.

For example, the Proton Drive applications (apart from web) were not published until very recently, even though the service is on the market; on the other hand, the Proton Wallet application's source code is already published as a Flutter

@Techaltar @protonprivacy

Rust hybrid application, even though the application itself seems not ready for publication yet. I think they do their best to find a middle ground and do try a lot of different approaches in tech, like native for some parts (AndroidMail, iOS-Mail, Drive ...) or some hybrid form (Android, iOS and Web Proton Pass with a Rust / native hybrid by using Mozilla's UniFFI or Flutter-Rust hybrid for Proton Wallet). What they use for Proton Calendar is sadly less known.

@Techaltar @protonprivacy One can see the web overlay and could use that in e.g. an Ionic application (like they do on Linux with the Proton Mail + Calendar app) or maybe Tauri would work. Also, an old fork of the calendar UI for Android in Kotlin is public and some old React Native version (?). Proton does take user requests systematically with UserVoice.

@Techaltar @protonprivacy However, even though the requests are sometimes marked for planned or not, what will actually come in what time spans is not really transparent. Even though Proton Wallet was planned and prepared apparently for a long time, its publication still took many users by surprise.

@Techaltar
I should probably use more of their services.

@Techaltar I really wanted to move to using proton drive, but it does not support file upload/edit via link if the other person does not have an account, which is a deal breaker for me. Currently using nextcloud which does not force anyone into creating an account, if possible.
