Hello, I have photos on Proton Drive that I want to move to Proton photos. What can I do?

      They didn’t leave the Fediverse because of that. They got the same reaction on Reddit and Bluesky, but are still on those platforms.

        Don’t really care what the reason is. They’re supposed to be a privacy company and they’ve abandoned the only semi-private media platform.

          The fediverse is not private. It’s open, that’s the point of it. There’s very few protections on your data. By necessity, your data will flow through hundreds of third party servers who can do whatever they want with it.

          The benefit of the Fediverse is that it’s decentralized and that helps users avoid the BS that Twitter went through.

            I said “semi-private” for what I feel like are obvious reasons when compared to other platforms.

    I don’t have a desktop at hand to try and it doesn’t work on mobile using the desktop site: can you drag pictures into the Photos folder from your Drive on desktop?

    If that doesn’t work or you’ve already tried that I’m afraid your SOL. You’ll probably need to bounce them off a hard drive into the photos backup.

    The photos are in “My Data” and I want them in the “Photos” folder.
