Is "grive" available for Ubuntu 16.04 or has any new applications appeared for managing G drive files?

Question

I was wondering if Ubuntu 16.04 has a Gdrive application? I would like to manage my G drive files in a better way.

The PPA linked as a dupe, has the packages for 16.04 but a small difference, it is called grive2 and not just grive — Mark Kirby, Jun 06 '16 at 10:29

I am using the one from nilarimogard, did you find a applet indicator substitute for it? — Aquarius Power, Sep 04 '17 at 21:59

InSync works like a charm, only it's 25$ a year. A couple of days ago it was 24h lifetime free licence. This may come again:

Download it here: https://www.insynchq.com/downloads

Install the deb. package.

To update your local file manager with Insync integration, use one of the following:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install insync-nautilus
sudo apt install insync-nemo
sudo apt install insync-caja
sudo apt install insync-thunar
sudo apt install insync-dolphin

If you are using Ubuntu 16.04 (64bit) and Insync doesn't start then run this command to fix it:

Terminal Commands:

sudo mv /usr/lib/insync/libfontconfig.so.1 /usr/lib/insync/libfontconfig.so.1.old

I paid a one time fee for Insync. Maybe it's changed? – Organic Marble Jun 06 '16 at 10:39
Try to download and use it, should work. – Mookey Jun 06 '16 at 10:46
