Anything you put in ~/CloudDrop is uploaded to Google Drive with the same folder structure, under a CloudDrop folder in My Drive. Deleting a file locally never deletes it from Drive: it becomes cloud-only, stays listed in CloudDrop, and can be downloaded back at any time. So you can free up space on your computer without losing anything, by hand or automatically.
CloudDrop asks Google only for access to the files it creates itself (drive.file), and files go straight between your computer and Google.
The Ubuntu PPA (ppa:dhiva-labs/apps) also adds status icons and actions to the Files app, which a snap can't do.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install CloudDrop, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install clouddrop
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
