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.

For command line sync to the cloud you can use rclone. It's FOSS and works with many different cloud providers.
For a constant sync experience you can use insync. It's closed source and requires a license though, but works reasonably well.
Sorry for the lack of direct links since I'm on the phone.
You don't need insync - most people just automate
rclone synccommands using whatever task scheduler their system runs by default (cronjobs or systemd units, typically). For those who prefer a GUI, KDE has a Scheduled Tasks app.On Android, you can use Round Sync which is a wrapper around rclone and can import the same configs.
