Not for nothing the Gdrive app let's you symlink local directories to gdrive...not that that is readily apparent to non-computer touchers

What does that do in this context?

I assume it lets you clone files off your HDD onto the cloud. So you can have it continuously auto backup your data while still retaining your own copy.

Filesync following symlinks feels kinda distasteful.
