      To be fair, they barely have a Windows client. I’m constantly having issues with it

      Do you need it though? i feel like the linux userbase is already fairly low, and the intersection of people who cant do a RW mount with rclone ans uses linux is even lower.

      You would be pouring a bunch of money into a development for the 0.001% Userbase

        You can tell how passionate a company is with their products by their Linux support. That means no one there cares enough to push hard for Linux support. Even Dropbox has a Linux client.

          Valve’s commitment to Linux is why I’ve consistently bought games virtually exclusively through Steam.

      Just use rclone. Its bidirectional sync is kinda meh last I tested it, so I do manual syncs in each direction. Otherwise its awesome. Can even encrypt your stuff with your own key.

      Supports a bunch of backends. There is an androind client called Round Sync with cron-like scheduling to keep my phone backed up.
