Last time I tried Linux there was no native Google Drive application and none of the third party ones worked properly to sync my files. Has that changed at all?? Don't tell me to stop using Google Drive I'm locked in for work
I am confused. Google drive has been on my computer for years. I don't use it much, I don't like storing things there. But Dolphin just mounts it and treats it like another drive. Maybe I am missing something? Like when you use a certain application it doesn't see the google drive in the file dialog or something?
Here is a screen cap of the gdrive with folders in it: https://i.imgur.com/DjOc9xx.png
Your imgur link is down, but let me ask: are those files actually physically present on your hard drive or they streamed from the cloud server
The imgur link is down? That would be bizarre. Opens on my desktop and my phone....
The files are on the google drive in the cloud. I believe there is a package to sync them with local files if I HAD to have them local. Or I suppose a rclone or syncthing script could run locally to do the same thing.
Do you need to disconnect your laptop from the cloud and then sync them later? Is that what I am missing?
It's that I need the files available locally across multiple devices, synced through the cloud. Ideally automatically, but I'd take a manual sync
