drive VS syncthing

I just want to collect the major options for Google Drive on Linux in a single comment, since a few options are scattered around:

Insync works well, and it's 50% off for a couple more days: https://www.insynchq.com/ Not affiliated, but $15 is not a lot to pay, as opposed to waiting for something that probably won't happen.

Rclone has support for Google Drive, and it's open source: https://rclone.org/

There's a command line client that uses a push/pull workflow: https://github.com/odeke-em/drive It was written by a member of the Google Drive team.

Gnome supports Google Drive, or at least used to, directly in Nautilus. I don't use Gnome, so I can't comment.

There may be other options I've missed, but the point is that there is already good support in multiple forms. I'd be interested to know what support Google could provide that's not already available.

Run this command to download (into your home directory): $ mkdir -p ~/.local/bin $ cd ~/.local/bin $ wget -c "https://github.com/odeke-em/drive/releases/download/v0.4.0/drive_linux" -O "drive-google" $ chmod a+x ./drive-google

I think the dolphin file manager has Google drive access built in. But it requires the kio-gdrive package to be installed. If I am not mistaken it also does not do a sync to the local file system, it just allows for more convenient access. But this might be more like something, you are looking for: https://github.com/odeke-em/drive but I haven't tried this one out myself.

If you want a free google drive client for Linux this project should work ( I used it to sync my google drive files while in school) https://github.com/odeke-em/drive

The last option I've found is Drive, a github project by Odeke-em with a name that certainly made it difficult to find. It seems like it may be the best option, but it looks difficult to set up and its wiki is broken.

For Google Drive, this is a good client: https://github.com/odeke-em/drive as is https://github.com/prasmussen/gdrive

I use this https://github.com/odeke-em/drive

- drive

i've used this on macos and linux with great success: https://github.com/odeke-em/drive

My biggest gripe with Firefox on Android is that sometimes I enter a domain in the address bar, press enter and nothing happens.

This behaviour seems to be erratic and only affects a few websites, such as https://forum.syncthing.net.

Closing the tab or using a different one doesn't solve the problem. I need to force close the app to fix this.

Syncthing has had on their roadmap for 9.5 years to support iOS but hasn’t due to lack of interest by the developers to devote the time to make it.

macOS is supported though.

And Syncthing via 3rd parties does support iOS.

I haven't been able to access https://docs.syncthing.net or https://forum.syncthing.net/ but I was able to access some of the docs via github. I think I've set it up according to the docs. The logs contain lots of messages like:

Malware built into iOS makes it impossible to install Syncthing[0], which is a problem for most of the people who use iCloud tp sync their files.

They seem to have chosen Docker instead of Flatpak. You can get it with Docker by running:

syncthing is fully open sourced and distributed under MPL-2 licenses, while dropbox is not!

You could try to force QUIC which should handle latency a bit better. The priority of TCP/QUIC will be configurable with the upcoming v1.23.5 release:
