Backup and Sync and Drive File Stream on Linux?

April 5, 2018 by Alan Stainer

Backup and Sync and Drive File Stream on Linux?

I know I may be clutching at straws here, but I noticed they have updated the text for the system requirements since the release of Backup & Sync, including the part about Linux support.

Here’s the important bit…

Linux: Backup and Sync isn’t currently available using the Linux operating system.

Why bother updating the document to mention Linux at all, unless they plan to release a Linux desktop client at some point in the future?

Google Drive there are a lot of Linux users out here and we could really do with something tangible right now. Any comments?
