I’m brand new to Linux, running Mint on an old laptop to get a few more years out of it. I can install things via CLI, but I prefer GUI if available.

I’m looking for a cloud syncing option for some files I want to access across multiple devices. I don’t need a lot of space. I’m not skilled enough to host things somewhere myself, I want just a consumer cloud solution.

I have a Box account, but there’s not a native Box sync app for Linux. I’ve seen ExpanDrive claims to offer Box syncing, but I’m hesitant to pay or give it access to my account without knowing more about it. If it truly works and is secure, I don’t mind paying.

Otherwise, what have been your best experiences with cloud hosting and syncing on Linux?

Thanks everyone! I’ve been having a lot of fun with my little Linux machine, I’m just bummed I didn’t try this sooner.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
