No thumbnails when using Drive with rclone? - eviltoast

It seems like when uploading pictures to Proton Drive via rclone instead of the web ui, the pictures’ thumbnails never get generated. Has anybody found a way of triggering the thumbnail generation, without re-uploading everything?

    You can open a ticket on GitHub. Its essentially supported by one guy who reverse engineered their internal API. This is their reverse engineered API library that rclone depends on:

    On a related note, proton is adding photos support. Maybe they changed something with their API for photos since the author reverse engineered it due to this.
