Is it possible to use Google Drive reliably? - eviltoast

I’ve been using Google Drive in Windows for about a decade and have a good workflow. I recently transitioned to Linux but cannot seem to reliably connect my drive to the filesystem. My work provides unlimited Drive space and since it’s for work I have shared directories with coworkers that I need access to every day. Hence, I’m kind of tied to GDrive.

Is there a reliable method of doing this? Rclone seems to be what I want but it seems to disconnect regularly, and often doesn’t upload the changes I make which defeats the purpose.

Do Linux users just not use Drive?

    And you just know that the tools to access Google Drives natively in Linux must already exist and have been in use internally at Google for a decade, but Alphabet can’t figure out how to profit so we’ll never see it.
