    I recently read that the Linux client is something that might not happen for a long time, if at all. The user base is too small and it doesn’t make sense economically etc.

    I have been hoping that a company that values privacy would see the benefit of people switching to Linux, and that having first-class support for Linux clients would be valuable in itself, as a message about Protons values.

    If there’s no money, then that’s unfortunate. But the free and open source community has been known to put in a lot of work when there’s a need. Would it be possible to make it easier for people to work on a community client? The main thing needed from Proton would be documenting the API I guess.

    Is Proton interested in working together with the free and open source community?
