Last time I tried ProtonDrive(years ago), the speeds were complete dogshit, I could barely surpass 10 MB/s on a half gig fibre line. Anyone used it recently, and if so has it improved?

Not sure, but that would explain how Google photos are always in sync and proton drive is always backing up my photos with 50-70 items to go (with no way to see which pictures/videos are backed up). Often their VPN will prevent even their own sevices from working and I have to reconnect manually to make it work. Never had these issues with mullvad.
I'm generally not very happy with proton's services or apps. When this year of my payment is over I'll be switching away.
Yeah, I'm also switching away. They're very sluggish on features. I went through all the rigamarole of setting up my own domain for the email service. Specifically with the idea that I could them automatically filter all my mail into folders by service. But, as it turns out, Protonmail has very limited support for sieve extensions. The crucial one is being able to create mailboxes from sieve scripts. So I can sort emails into folders, but I'd have to go create a bunch of folders, and make a new one every time I sign up for something. I'll be switching to fastmail, I think.
Though, if ProtonDrive became fast finally, I might still be convinced to pay a smaller fee for PD plus their VPN, which is completely fine for my purposes anyway(mostly just torrenting).
I think they are spreading themselves a bit too thin by trying to have an answer to every Google feature. I would have stayed if the core stuff worked. Would have been a lot better if they made some privacy focused API other apps could hook into and other providers could copy, and then we could create an ecosystem that replaces Google.
I’m not a customer and don’t know but IIRC they’ve been rewriting the storage API or whatever it is and it should resolve that exact problem.
