... until you try to open the files with a non-gnome application. Mounting a filesystem was supposed to be a solved problem.

Examples? Maybe I just don't have enough non-Gnome applications tbh.

I just tested with Slack, VSCode, and GIMP, and all three allowed me to browse and open from there.

From the top of my head, QOwnNotes (hierachical markdown notes) and KeePassXC (password manager). I remember those two because I had to use DropBox, they can't see the Gnome Google Drive path as a regular path.

I ended up buying InSync because it was 50% off in easter, and its Google Drive/Dropbox paths works perfectly even in the terminal. Unfortunately it lacks Google Drive streaming.
