Is there an equivalent to Google Drive in Windows for KDE?
I’m talking full synchronization of my Google Drive files into a local folder.
I know there’s the KDE KIO Worker that can integrate with Dolphin, but according to itsfoss.com:
Each time you try to modify a file, it is copied to a local cache directory. Once you finish modifying a file, it prompts for uploading the modified file to GDrive.
There’s RClone that can do that I think, but I’m not certain. And it looks a bit complicated to set up.
What are you recommendations?
are you looking for a google drive replacement? or a tool to sync google drive to your linux/kde system?
A tool to sync GDrive to my system. That’s pretty much what Google’s software did in Windows.

That is what nexcloud Integration dies.
There is a folder, which will be synced with nextcloud.
Isn’t NextCloud on-prem self-hosting?
If you don’t need a GUI,
rcloneis perfect for this. I personally use it with Storj.Yeah I guess that will have to do. I’ll go read the docs and see how to set it up.
rclone mountis pretty great but if you’re doing any heavy workloads that expect all the files to be there, maybe syncing (rclone copy,rclone sync) is the better route.Just be very careful with
rclone syncbecause it can lead to unexpected data loss if you don’t know what you’re doing.@cyborganism @harsh3466
I used https://freefilesync.org/ for that. You can also try using https://foldersync.io/
