Is that the old client? Yes, it was never great for me either.
I had an alert to switch to "Google Drive File Stream" (and uninstall the old Google Drive client) that is some kind of virtual filesystem. I went ahead and did it but haven't used it much yet.
It's only for g-suite (i.e. corporate) users, not personal accounts. It's up to your g-suite admin to push it. I've been using it for a few months and it's pretty good.
