I have had issues with VPN. Every now and then it broke due to update in some dependency. I got tired of that crap and switched to openvpn and proton config files.
Drive works only via browser.
Good to know about the VPN issues. And yes, i suspected Drive would only work on the browser. It's unfortunate no one seems to know how long it will take for a linux version.
The GUI app is terrible for VPN. It randomly logs me out and sometimes it refuses to connect. I have been relying on the CLI and it works great. After setting up auto-connect, you won't even have to touch it most of the times.
That is good to know, thanks! Also thank you for the link in your other reply, very helpful
Just to chime in, I absolutely cannot get VPN to work on the latest Fedora. Seems to work okay on Mint.
They did just release a new GUI, but not sure if that will do anything to help with the back end.
