@joshblaylock yo, I sent a few messages about the Mercy Sparx Omni 2 not working from the Dropbox link we got. I got it with the catch up digital tier during the last Kickstarter. Was wondering if it could be fixed.

@_deadsteve Destin already has a massive file server. But Dropbox is nice when you don't want every collaborator to know your IP address. Also the file server is probably not set up to be outward facing.

@DavidGoldbergFL @TheStalwart Popular sites affected by today's Cloudflare outage include X, ChatGPT, Spotify, Canva, Shopify, Dropbox, and Amazon. Cloudflare handles ~20% of global internet traffic; this outage impacted a significant portion of that, likely 5-10% of total usage based on affected platforms' scale (estimates vary).

@smartereveryday @DropboxBusiness You never had any privacy in dropbox. Use @Cryptomator to end-to-end encrypt before uploading to third party server

@smartereveryday @DropboxBusiness The simple answer is to stop using Dropbox and set up a personal FTP server.

@DropboxSupport I spent a week uploading my main hard drive and a legacy drive to Dropbox earlier this year. Only to have the connection be broken without explanation and then told I can’t even download one of my entire backups at once. Customer service was slow, dehumanizing & without apology

@zoink @erni_eth Export to PDF save file locally sounds like the most robust solution. User can then save it locally and wherever they want be it IPFS or Dropbox, etc. Local copy + USB is the safest when doing a presentation. Internet could go down.

4/ Centralised infra has a single point of failure. If AWS goes down, half the internet feels it. One breach in Dropbox and millions are exposed. DePIN networks don’t have this problem. They’re spread across thousands of independent nodes -> no global kill switch.

We built an automation for a client to name all her videos using AI. 800 files later, it broke. Her editors wasted hours manually renaming files on Dropbox for clients. The automation would have saved her team 100s of hours. It analyzed every video frame. Then auto-named each file using AI. Built it using code and n8n. Things were looking good. Then it broke. Since every client folder had a different name the automation couldn’t tell what went where. Everything was a mess. I learned that you need structure before you can automate. Because you can't automate a system that wasn't built in the first place. No amount of code will fix that.

@derekla777 @FinanceLancelot "Anyone can run an entire LLM locally" is the same argument as "You can run your own Linux server that does the same thing as Dropbox" Most people are lazy or just don't care to do it themselves. Service providers will survive.

@Dillon_Valdez @badugi12 @HolySmokas He bought elf around 7 bucks, I remember in 2020. Bought pltr at 7 or 8 bucks. SoFi at around 5, Celsius at 20 or 25. Amd at 100 and under…. yeah some of those went bankrupt TTCF Voyager and dropbox sucked and soda planet 13 although went up to seven dollars for a brief moment when you bought it at one dollar he just didn’t sell it. And yeah a lot of his revenue is probably from YouTube ads and subscriptions, but he’s had some good picks. He is incentivize to have good picks cause if they all end up trash his YouTube revenue ends private group subscription goes down

I dont know which company needs to hear this - @Dropbox on @Apple 15.6.1 is consistently BROKEN and stops syncing. Been like this for weeks (for me) Apple's sandbox helicopter parent idea has been a nightmare. I want to Rebel against this over reach.

@rahulsood @Gemini are you a clown? it's been less than 3 months? Why don't you ask AI about Facebook's first 3 months or Dropbox, or a host of others. Plus, the whole market is down. Educate yourself.

Most products treat virality as an afterthought. They build the core experience first, ship it, then wonder why growth is slow. So they bolt on referral programs. Share buttons. Growth hacks. But here's what actually works: embedding sharing into the core loop itself. Dropbox didn't add referral bonuses later. Free storage for invites was the product experience. Loom doesn't have a "share" feature. The whole point is sending video links. When sharing IS the value, not a side quest, you don't need a marketing budget. You need a product people can't use alone. Network effects aren't a growth strategy. They're product design.
