    I am so much in love with OneDrive!! Not having a Microsoft Client for Onedrive on Ubuntu sucks sooooo much :(. I am using an open-source client for the moment, which can be accessed here, but the official one on Windows is sooo much better.

    I use the paid app isync for Kubuntu 19.10 and it works Great. Would love it if Microsoft Bought this company that has already done the leg work for them and made it official and polished it up.

    I would like to see a linux native App of OneDrive and Microsoft Office.

    My original Language is Portuguese (Brazil)

    I use Linux and Windows at home, and the browser to access my files when at work. At work I use Windows to develop ASP.NET and SQL Server solutions, as well as troubleshoot MS Office. The ability to seamlessly sync and work with files back-and-forth with all the benefits of OneDrive is much needed.

    Yes, there is Google Drive, but [1] Google failed on their promise of an official Google Drive for Linux, which means they can change the API anytime and not be responsible to the community projects that did the work for them (Gnome, Insync, etc.), and [2] to edit the files via browser you have to convert the files to a Google App format. Even OneDrive can be set to default to Open Desktop file format instead of MS Office format, meaning I could use LibreOffice or OpenOffice just as well.

    I know OneDrive is an integral part of many MS products and I think this would be a great first step to opening up products to the growing ranks of Linux users.

    Then I would want MS Office for Linux. I'd even be happy if it were the mobile versions for Android modified to work installed on Linux.

    I also want to see Microsoft come out with an official OneDrive just to stick it to Google that tossed out an API like a slab of gristle to a hungry dog. Even better if Microsoft points that out to them. :)

    Yes this is much needed. And not only for personal accounts, but also for business accounts with office365

    Currently using rclone and it works great but would love an official app for OneDrive/SharePoint on Linux
