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?

If what you need is s way to synchronize a folder to your Google Drive, you can use Celeste. Is a cloud synchronization client that works pretty well, although is not perfect, but you can give a try and judge for yourself.

Now, if you want to replace Gdrive with another cloud service , Nextcloud is a grate alternative

If you'd be so kind as to post an update when you do try it it'd be much appreciated 🙏

Hey there. I just tried Celeste and it's not working for me. I get some kind of thread panic or some error like that.

It's a shame. That app looks promising. It needs more contributors.
