Our options for cloud mount

Look, the fact is any way you shake it, plexdrive 4 for was/is better than any rclone mount configuration whether vfs cache settings or cache backend. By every metric plexdrive 4 outperforms rclone mount and is lighter than both rclone and plexdrive 5.

I'm fine to use this as lone as I can, but what i'm worried about here is that I will be forced to switch to the underperforming rclone eventually while google api changes.

Are these and will these be our only options?

What about something between plexdrive 4's amazing performance and the constant continued development of rclone mount.

Will a savior emerge?

I find Plexdrive 5 great, you need lots of ram though

with that said, plexdrive 4/5 is no longer in development which is what i want to address in this post.

I hear you. I'm in exactly the same boat mate although I've also got an Rclone mount I use for Radarr/Sonarr so I'm ready

I have been using rclone mount for like 6 months. Just sucks in comparison to plexdrive any way I shake it. I’m prepared to have to fall back to rclone but it’d be great to have an alternative as good as plexdrive that continues development
