Thank you both @Doremi and @Gaeilgeoir for your contribution. While I could see that the majority of Swisscom clients in Switzerland would probably not use Linux, I wouldnât necessarily agree with @Doremiâs argument about prohibitive the development and maintenance costs of a Linux client. Firstly, like many other cloud providers (e.g., Dropbox, NextCloud, OwnCloud,âŠ) Swisscom may start by targeting only the three most popular distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian). Second, as a software engineer, I believe nowadays it is not that difficult to develop cross-platform programs. In fact, I believe the existing Mac client should be easily portable to Linux.
I am personally dissatisfied that I have to use Dropbox instead of Swisscom myCloud (and accept that my data is stored outside Switzerland), simply because I do not use Mac or Windows.
