I am using linux mint 20.1 Cinnamon. I have turned on google account in *online account* setting for google drive syncronisation.
So in my folder explorer, there is an entry under networks relating to my google account that I signed into. It shows the current state of my google drive.
The problem is that I am not able to use this location in my applications. For example, I am not able to use this location of google drive files in my Obsidian app.
When I print the directory of the google drive folder, it shows as: `/run/user/1000/gvfs/google-drive:host=gmail.com,user=[my_username]
`
Now I am unable to navigate to this location as there is no folder
gvfs
inside the folder named 1000
Is there a workaround? I need to sync files from my google drive into a local copy.
