Hi Noah, you should try pCloud. It is not open source, but mounts on your
linux workstation just like a normal local storage drive. I use Carbonite,
because you can treat it lives in file explorer and uses your standard
windows file navigation keystrokes. The problem is finding one cloud
storage provider that works seamlessly across all 4 platforms.
Best, Amelia
