    @firstdogonmoon what problems are you having with Dropbox that you'd like to solve? I use OneDrive because I'm mostly Microsoft based and do most of my work on Windows, using macOS probably about 40% of the time? But if you're just fully in Apple land my partner uses iCloud and it seems fine.

    @DropboxSupport I found it & responded. He emailed about the ticket from 10 days ago, which is not the current state of the problem. I told him what's been done & gave him screenshots of current situation. Email support, ten days later, is not support. I need a human to contact me today!

    @Morris_Monye It's possible we create our own server were the images can be uploaded so nothings gets missing. Even if na Google drive or dropbox

    @DropboxSupport I am still having the exact same issue. I do not have a phone number to contact a single human being. No one has contacted me either.

    @Jcarrot18 @learning_yohei just chose some, like a game or book collect vocab with Takoboto (note it down somewhere if the word you noted down has no kanji but takoboto shows some) export list to Anki (add Kana on front page for noted words) [btw I got a Dropbox link on my insta]

    @GregorMacdonald @DropboxSupport @Dropbox I finally found a fix, but it was after I added subs to Mega & Tresorit, which worked fine (as did existing services Sync & OneDrive). On your mac, go to system settings > Siri & Spotlight & at the bottom, click on Spotlight Privacy (con't)

    @Adewuyifm @UjuAnya @ProfGilbert You sound daft sorry! INEC collected 300billion naira for the election how come they couldn’t set up a server that can handle a large traffic? How come Facebook, Dropbox and other sites are able to handle millions of users per minute/second???!

    @firstdogonmoon @PostingGeneral I'm a mac user and use onedrive for work; it works well on mac and I've never had issues. For personal things, I use dropbox - it doesn't do weird things to me and leaves me alone, but I've turned off notifications. I wanted to use icloud but they didn't accept annual payments.

    @Lazer Logseq is good, powerful BUT after importing my RoamResearch notes (1200) it was slow... Also the sync of several devices (Android, other PC, etc) via Dropbox does not work properly... There are conflicts... It's promising but still in Beta... Obsidian is much more stable

    Does anyone have issues opening old Keynote files? I'm trying to work with some old conference decks and they "can't be opened right now" because "keynote can't read the file"... they've just been sitting dormant in my Dropbox, seems insane that the app won't open them?

    @DakotaWolfNZ @CreepyReading The dropbox does not contain those videos, essentially I ****-canned them once the first patreon issue happened back in 2021.

    @jessiechar This hit one of us yesterday and I think it's a Dropbox problem. If you right click and "Make available offline" first, does it make a difference?!

    @cterlson I linked it to Dropbox a couple of weeks ago to save in case something happened to my laptop. Now it’s days I used the 2 gig of storage. Hell may be user error.

  • GregorMacdonald
    Gregor Macdonald (@GregorMacdonald) reported

    @DIGLegal @DropboxSupport Yes. Exact same problem. And @DropboxSupport is bizarrely not acknowledging this problem in help desk emails, while, at the same time, have placed a warning badge on the app that sometimes says "some users are having issues, we are working on a fix."

    @rachelwmartin I'm wondering if this new @dropbox behavior is normal or if it is a sign of a problem

    Peer to peer network achitectures like Bit torrent also uses client server sockets but each endpoint serves as both. Client so some, server for some. Nearly every application you use today like - imgur - cloudinary - dropbox uses sockets at some level.

    Hey @DropboxSupport - your app is THE WORST!!! i did a free trial and it will not allow me to cancel, it sends me round & round making it impossible! What kind of scam is this?? It makes me create a new password just to cancel then has me sing up again to sign in to cancel!!

    Anyone know how to make a fake drop box page that sends login info to me. I made one w z phisher app in Linux but Google detects it sometimes as phishing. I'm trying to make a Dropbox login page copy on WordPress now to do same thing?

    @kujava23 Well the game does not require a huge server to play a multiplayer league - you can even get free hosting somewhere to do it (the league files to share have to be stored somewhere or use a dropbox to send files back and forth) but the mechanics have not changed

    @AlboGravity Different browser didn’t work unfortunately, I think I have found a work around otherwise I’ll try Dropbox. Two files 14 GB each. Had sent 5 videos to him before at the same size with no issues so unsure why this became one all of a sudden
