@Dropbox I have the beta as I mentioned in my tweet. I can’t get Smart Sync to function properly and am asking if that’s a known limitation of the beta or something I might be able to fix. Thanks @DropboxSupport

@DropboxSupport I have a link sharing ban my first in 11 yrs. I was told it was a bandwidth issue that would last 24 hrs it's been week. I have a marketing company, no copyright issue or inappropriate content. I reduced file size, deleted all shared links, still can't share.

@film_girl Agreed, the problem is, like iPhone and Android, we’re built all set up with Dropbox that transitioning to another service seems…like a lot of work.

@Bruce_Toews It sure does give you pause, doesn't it? When I was having modem issues, I sometimes couldn't access books from Dropbox. I have too many to be made available offline.

Related note, when it's possible, I have my Amazon ordered delivered to an Amazon dropbox at one of the retailers near me. It's secure, I worry less, and it's no extra charge. You should do the same if package deliveries are an issue for your location.

@GoMoIrelandCare I ported from Vodafone earlier this month and I'm not getting auth/OTP/verification text messages from places like AIB, Microsoft, Paypal or Dropbox. Is there a problem with the port?

@DropboxSupport I know how to create the links, I know all the steps, I have done it for months, the problem is that now when I disable downloads in a view-only link the right click is enabled and people still can download the files.. that did not happen before. help?

Can't get any of my recordings because it says the Dropbox folder is corrupted and whenever i try to extract I lose over half my videos to errors.

@david_hewson I’ve constantly hit problems with OneDrive sync, which is why I use Dropbox. But whenever I mention it on PC Pro Podcast, lots of readers swear by OneDrive. It’s weird how people’s experience with the service is so variable.

@Glitter_brawl Perfect song in every way. Currently on Mistakes We Knew We Were Making. Did you hear the original demos? If not I just tracked them down so could dropbox 'em.

Not having to send my self emails or login into to Dropbox/Google drive etc to share documents with myself is a necessary convenience. Being able to start something on my phone, after a random light bulb moment knowing that my other devices will be kept in the loop👌🏽.

Dropbox doesn’t have full support for online-only files for MacOS 12.3 @Dropbox should Mac users wait until they fix this problem or move to another cloud service? I'm not going to DL every damn file on a harddrive 😠

Today’s #SiliconValley sociopathy. @DropboxSupport doesn’t work with Mac OS 12.3. I try to contact them to see when they’ll fix it and get credit for a product I pay for that **doesn’t work as advertised**. Bot chat loop is the result. @FTC

@iMore I’ve always had problems with Dropbox and I’m glad I didn’t use it for very long and iCloud Drive finally came along.

@iamgune I switched back Fedora when I left SF in 2012 and been running it on my 2014 tricked out MacMini ever since it became macOS EOL. My jump box runs Fedora server as well and I sync configs across systems via Dropbox and ansible.

@JoseTejera Dropbox — trying to insert itself into everything file or photo related. Very annoying. OneDrive — adds itself to the Finder sidebar on every login with an exceptionally ugly icon

Lol, just got an email from Dropbox specifying how the next version of their software is going to be broken.

@jathansadowski Having looked into this occasionally, I can never figure out which readers 1) support syncing with a big Dropbox folder in a not-terrible way 2) produce normal PDF annotations (i.e. editable on another computer, not an image layer)

@joeb_EY If you are just sharing then would a cloud server (iCloud, dropbox, GDrive) be simplist?

@baratunde @Dropbox Yeah, I turned Smart Sync on by default and it seems fine? I’ll admit I don’t tax Dropbox very hard on the regular though. It’s running under Rosetta. Lots of folks have had issues with Dropbox running under Rosetta, so you’re likely seeing the same issues. /cc @mitchellh

@tkylebjorn @emilyldolson @googledrive I haven’t had any such issues with Dropbox, OneDrive, or Box. Box is weird with symlinks, so I typically use Dropbox.

@mikedotsullivan It’s a bit of a weird message really. The current MacOS release is only 12.1. The Dropbox issue says it will be a problem for 12.3 beta. The beta isn’t out for a while yet and all software can have issues whilst in beta.

@trellosupport - The Dropbox Power-Up doesn't work on the macOS client and suggests a change to browser settings which we assume is Safari but it doesn't work. Any way to fix? Or even better, any plans to add OS notifications to the web app (as a PWA) including an icon badge?
