Ffs why! It’s not like they rely on online servers

That’s totally fair. I had the same pop up appear today and yes it’s really no big deal and quick to just close but we absolutely should have the option to not get promo ads especially that appear on our desktops in a huge panel. A small note in the apps is fine if out of the way.

It is also fair to do this if the user isn’t paying for the service currently. Then ads are expected. But if I have an active sub, I should not be getting ads forced at all.

Side note though, I am glad I saw this ad as I was thinking of switching from just vpn to ultimate as I started switching my emails over to proton and would also like the drive storage. So this will come in handy. Do you know when the promo ends?

It’s not working with .odt and .docx files. Still cannot open them on mobile.

That was a huge factor for why I didn’t end up going the proton route initially. But now I want proton mail and unlimited seems worth it. I can use the Web client at least on linux. I use another cloud storage for mass storage and can use proton drive for my documents and stuff that don’t need syncing or frequent access.
