This:

https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-KDE-neon-and-KDE-plasma[1] 

tells you about KDE Neon.  I'm not sure how you get it from that post, but I 
think that it's 
effectively a repository which Kubuntu doesn't use.

Ditch all this modern GUI stuff that will never catch on.

Rclone is a command line program to sync files and directories to
and from... — http://rclone.org/

It might make your "push of changed files" to GDrive easier.

Cheers, Ralph.

I've just built the later fork (grive2) and it seems to be doing what it
should - you need to run manual sync though.

Nope.


Otherwise any time I edit on my computer I have to duplicate on Drive.

I couldn't see any instructions for installing it on Kubuntu, which is rather
odd, considering that Kubuntu is one of the main KDE distros.

What did you do; build it from scratch.

There is a Unity GDrive package; just search for gdrive in Synaptic.  I
haven't tried it.

Under Install there was a command line install for KDE Neon, which was 
in the usual format, but came back with package not found.

That's a bit vague.  I see there's
https://aelog.org/kio-gdrive-released/ and
https://community.kde.org/KIO_GDrive says how to install it for
different distributions, though no Ubuntu flavours.  Have you done
anything to install it?  «dpkg -l '*drive*'» will list packages,
installed or not, with drive in their name.

Cheers, Ralph.
