I’m looking to reduce my dependence on Google services as much as possible, and Proton seems to offer the most comprehensive private suite. A number of things seemed to be missing, but most of my information is from reviews that could be out of date. So I wanted to ask which of these features Proton can replicate.

  • Thunderbird mail syncing (without paid plan?)
  • Thunderbird calendar syncing
  • Calendar sharing
  • Easy move from google drive to proton drive
  • Sync android photos like google photos
  • Offline file saving for specific files in proton drive on android
  • Sync with folder or mount on linux (smb or similar)
