Is there any desktop client for Linux that can take free tier Proton?

I made a Proton mail on the free tier. But I can't connect using the Proton desktop email client, and I can't connect using Thunderbird on free tier either because you need to edit settings that are only available in paid Proton tier

They only offer mail access via external sources for their paid tier. It's not available on the free tier.

*for any platform

Their protonmail app should work, no? I think they have .deb and .rpm packages.

Their desktop app (for email) requires a paid plan as far as I can tell, so you need to use their web client instead. They do have a two week trial of the desktop client though, which is interesting.

I see, didn't know that. Their app is wrapped web-app btw anyway, so I guess using a browser is almost the same.
