What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I am looking to understand what would be the better option for what i am trying to do, using mount or serve http

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

rclone v1.62.2

  • os/version: centos 7.9.2009 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 3.10.0-1160.83.1.el7.x86_64 (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.20.2
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none
Yes i am

My Question and I have the commands working - What is the better option - mount or serve http? I would like to host my site on our regular server and move the images to Google Drive to save server space. I know that nativly serve http doesn't serve images in a https format and i have working out how to get this done. Mount on the other hand seems so much simpler? Any Thoughts?

Thanks

serve http is probably more efficient. mount will work fine though.

I do a very similar thing with mount to serve beta.rclone.org from an object store. I keep meaning to switch it to serve http but never got round to it!
