Sometimes cloud providers will compress and/or delete metadata from your files a little too liberally...
You should talk to Proton support and explain that the file size is different than advertised once you download it. Maybe they can fix the issue or give you direct download link.
P.S. its important to verify your backups before you NEED too. Good luck!

Supposedly theres no compression. IDK why they would remove metadata.

I've had this issue downloading .BIN files, specifically. Cloud providers usually don't want untrusted binaries in their infra so they do all sorts of manipulation on them that isn't always safe for the integrity of the data.
