Use XDG desktop portals on linux about cryptomator

[purejava]

Portals were designed for use with applications sandboxed through Flatpak.

I am not that confident that a JavaFX app can use org.freedesktop.portal.Documents easily, see flathub/org.cryptomator.Cryptomator#19 (comment).

that's really sad, this is the only fast option i found to make google drive work on linux... rclone is very slow on my system and this issue is preventing me from buying cryptomator

We are talking about different things here.
Cryptomator is fast on Linux, when you use e.g. fuse.

The other thing that has a significant influence on the speed is your network connection.

[purejava]

A portal is more or less a mechanism to show a file choosing dialog. Not more. It shouldn't influence the speed that is available to you on mounting a vault into a virtual file system and syncing contained files into the cloud.

The file chooser portal is not not merely for Flatpaks. Applications should honour the file chooser specified by the portal, and fallback to some default portal, usually determined by the toolkit. Applications not using the correct file chooser dialog may seem like a minor gripe but it's similar to apps polluting the home folder, it's a legacy thing that ideally should be being patched out of applications.

Appreciate this is not a priority.
