I upgraded to Proton Unlimited today and I’ve set Proton Drive to back up my whole camera gallery, a few hundreds of GBs, so it will take a while. But I noticed that it skips large videos, e.g. it skipped a 9.8GB video file. Is this intended behavior? I can’t find documentation of it anywhere and it seems to happen silently. I easily could have missed it, assumed that it backed up everything down to a certain date, and deleted the only copy of the videos.

    99% full was when Proton Drive was using all the storage it could before it gave up. Half the reason I want to use Proton Drive is to free up storage space on my phone.

    Edit: and factually it works if I just tell it to retry (until the next time it runs out of space) so any excuse you make for it is nonsense. I hope Proton support/devs would take this more seriously than that.

      Please be respectful of other user’s comments, even if they don’t share your perspective. We don’t allow that kind of vocabulary around here.

      Thanks!

        Fair enough, I changed the offensive word. You should probably take a look at how BearOfaTime basically implied I’m an idiot.
