Let’s be real: pCloud Drive totally tripping on Tahoe 26 is on-brand for apps overly reliant on ancient tech. Some folks have flagged CloudMounter as their fix, and I admit—it gives you effortless Finder integration, dead simple to set up, and expects zero high-stakes system jujitsu. Pros: seamless mounting, no System Integrity Protection shenanigans, and you feel like it’s just another disk on your desktop. Cons? It’s not free (subs or one-time), and advanced features like encryption or offline access might come at an extra cost. Plus, it’s a third-party solution patching a gap pCloud should have fixed.
But hey, for those allergic to another subscription or added layer, have you tried pCloud’s web interface with the native macOS sync folder? It’s less flexible, yes, but safer than blowing holes in your Mac’s security to prop up a crumbling kernel extension ecosystem.
Looking at the points from others: one made CloudMounter sound like a magic wand, while another rightly dragged pCloud for sleeping at the wheel. Personally, I’d love to see pCloud actually build a native solution, but for now, CloudMounter leads the MacOS relay race—just watch out for the price tag and occasional quirks (network hiccups can occasionally unmount the drive, and power users might miss granular sync controls). Competitors like Mountain Duck or ExpanDrive exist, but they’re just more Band-Aids. Until Apple and pCloud become best friends, consider CloudMounter a solid, if imperfect, shortcut.
