- kaladin-jasnah 5y agoInSync? Not first party, but I heard everywhere it's really good.
- Karsteski 5y agoI've been using it for the past year. Works perfectly find, no complaints. Definitely worth the $40CAD I paid,even if I plan to move away from Google Drive in the near future
- duncanawoods 5y agoI used InSync with a mounted drive. I rebooted and it ran before the drive mounted and deleted my entire online google drive contents and then deleted the local files when the drive mounted. The google UI is such garbage that you can't undelete 1000s of files so I had to write a script against it's API that ran for a few days restoring everything. Sucked.
- wyufro 5y agoUbuntu supports Google Drive out of the box, it appears in the file manager. Probably it's Gnome doing the actual work, I haven't really bothered to learn it well.
- sylens 5y agoWas not aware of this, interesting
- lights0123 5y agoIf you want client, not necessarily sync, GNOME has it built-in. It'll mount your Drive using FUSE.
- sneak 5y agoWhy would you run Linux and use Google Drive? If you don't care about FAAN(M)G reading your data and activity, Windows is simpler and has better compatibility.
- sylens 5y agoConsider that I may use a tool like Google Drive for a subset of data that I don't feel is particularly sensitive or identifying in nature
- sneak 5y agoYou can't use Google Drive without providing identifying information (a phone number or a payment card) to Google.
