I watched this video where they talked about how someone installed Linux on their Google drive. Like, installing everything in Google drive, not finding some Google client. Storing the /* in Drive.

I am currently attempting to do this as well, but with Microsoft OneDrive. I’ll update you all on my progress!

    I would think that even a slow USB 2.0 drive would provide better performance than a cloud-based file system.

    That’s not the point of such experiments.

      Haha, oh I know and I’m all for trying things for the fun of it! Just wondered if there was a practical benefit of such a setup.
