- TillE 10y agoIt makes Google's lack of official Linux support even more galling. Here's a tiny company which has had good Linux tools (command line and GUI) from very early on. It's not an enormous technical challenge. Google, institutionally, just doesn't care. It's not about Linux, but everything outside of their top priorities gets completely neglected.

- sammydavis 10y agoThey have, they just didn't officially license it. Inside google, people are using gdrive that way.
- dorfsmay 10y agoYes. I just wish Dropbox had better plans for small orgs (like a family).
