Is there a way to use google drive on linux like it's another folder in the system so that I can save to it and see which files are remote?

  • @Rinzwind I did do that but when I save say a tex document the drive isn't an option to save to, I'm pretty sure it's all remote too.

  • By default it does not sync. You need a sync tool for that (and you can then pick a normal dir, store files there and it will sync with gdrive). By default you only can access files from gdrive. (Oh: it is one of the last option in the link)

  • I don't get it. Do you like to have a sync folder or mount it on-the-fly ?
