    It needs proficiency at the Linux command line -- a bar high enough to exclude the lay person who wants to ditch the tyranny of Micro$oft and opt for the benevolence of Linux. Only to be stumped by such discrimination!

    ExpanDrive is for mounting. Rclone, while powerful in other ways, does not do this.

    Expandrive doesn't sync, it mounts. Rclone doesn't do this.
