Update; Proton got back to me and apparently it was my local drive, not a cap on Proton.

== Hi all,

I’m preparing to move to Linux and am backing up a number of files on My Files (so, not the synced files). I have used about 90 GB on my proton account, but in total i have 550 GB available. While i was moving files, i suddenly got a popup that i only have 2 GB left on My Files. So, there is a cap on that? I have never read anything about this. Does anyone here know more?

I’m pretty disappointed, because now it will take a lot more work to decide which files i really need to keep. When i install linux, i will only have the web version of Proton Drive available, not the app. In other words, once i move to linux (not dual boot), i take it that all the sync files will be gone and i will only have My Files left. Or will it still keep the latest synced version of all the files on my Drive?

Anyone have experience with this?

      Thank you for clarifying, but wouldn’t this show in the amount of free space? It says i only used up 90 GB.
