Note that this is slightly different from Insync in that the latter
keeps a local copy of selected Google Drive files and maintains
synchronization between them, i.e. it takes up extra space on your
local drive, similar to what the GD apps do on Windows and MacOS. I've
often wished it didn't do that so I'll be interested in trying out this
new entrant.
