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.
