    @Burnstation3D @gonecozycrafts The cloud was never cheaper. It was hyped to us as cheaper and more convenient. While I was working as DevOps it was cheaper for us to buy an IBM server than to use Azure. And with this AI thingy it's only gonna get more expensive. My Dropbox was hacked and I lost some Google docs because of their error. I have trust issues with cloud

    Dropbox CEO Drew Houston is stepping down after 19 years, with chief product officer Ashraf Alkarmi being promoted, per CNBC

    Drew Houston stepping down as Dropbox CEO. 314 comments on HN, most reading like a eulogy. Cloud storage went from 'this changes everything' to 'it's just a folder' in about a decade. The moment Google bundled Drive for free, the moat was gone. What's the modern equivalent — something we think is defensible today that'll be commoditized by 2030?

    March 23, 2018. Dropbox IPOs on NASDAQ. Surges 40%+ day one. Market cap: $12B First YC company ever to go public. Drew still owned 30%. The real lesson: both rejections were right. Both made the company better. Treat each rejection as a specific diagnosis. Then fix that specific thing.

    2026 and we’re out here building god-tier AI that can debate physics and write symphonies, but Grok still can’t watch a Dropbox, OneDrive, or Discord video link.“Sorry, I can’t watch videos from Dropbox, OneDrive, or most direct file links.”We’re doing all this magic with AI and the video player is stuck in 2015. Fix it, xAI.

    dropbox has dropped the ball. how is this a 6 billion dollar saas. ultra slow navigation, doublecharges for storage (of course, extremely happy to help you buy more storage, really ****** tools to help audit storage), terrible org/personal file structure, cant even calculate last modified for a folder. i cannot think of another company with as high a delta on how much i respect the ceo vs how much i disrespect the product. absolutely enraging.

    The craziest part? Google and Dropbox built billion-dollar businesses… around a problem open source already solved for free years ago.

    @mitsuhiko Similarly, I still use the old version before 7. They try to force you to bind to their server-dependent version. I prefer to use dropbox to synchronize.

    Lawyers, your biggest barrier to AI isn't AI. It's that your data lives in 6 places. Dropbox. Drive. Email. Hard drive. A spreadsheet only one person can find. Fix that first.

    @DropboxSupport Web is fine (Firefox on Mac); for me it is your app on iPhone that is broken - no photos upload to Camera Uploads. Error is "some photos couldn't be uploaded". I retry and it is the same.

  • Peace_Grenade81
    The Redeemed Artist (@Peace_Grenade81) reported

    If this app was a phone I would have thrown it across the room by now. Breakups when I use voice to text. It's broken integration with Dropbox so I can't post my memes. And this has been going on for a long time. When will this be fixed?

  • ThatStartup_
    That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reported

    In 2009, Dropbox had a serious problem. They were charging $99/year and growth had flatlined. Drew Houston made one change to pricing. Revenue grew 3,900% in the next 24 months.

    @ZARA people beware of returning an order to their Dropbox in store. I returned an item on 28th March and still haven’t received payment back I’ve had to follow up and although I have an email to say that it’s been returned and refund would issue 9-11 days still nothing

    @ocornut @RichardKogelnig Actually, some times the new menu is faster and the classic menu is much slower... but then sometimes, the new menu shows 3 entries called "Loading..." and that's terrible, too! I think one of my W11 PCs has almost instant context menu - the Dropbox notes were from that one.

    @DropboxSupport Still not working

    Gavin (Owner 67 Designs) (@67Designs) reported

    @DumbMoneyCapitl That could be argued, sure. But it misses the bigger picture. The real issue isn’t whether Jim and SCS have a working Dropbox—they clearly do. The problem is that VC funds are desperately hunting for places to deploy all their capital, and businesses like this simply can’t deliver the returns those funds require because of their heavy capex profile. It’s a classic square peg in a round hole from a funding and returns standpoint.

    that's a sync-direction race: your web edits haven't reached the local Dropbox copy yet, so Claude overwrites a stale file. nothing's lost though, Overleaf's History menu keeps every version to restore from. fix: let Dropbox finish pulling before Claude edits.

    Google One charges $1.99 to $9.99/month for storage. Dropbox charges $11.99/month. iCloud charges $0.99 to $9.99/month. You have been paying for cloud storage your entire life. A solo developer just turned Telegram into a cloud storage drive. Free. It is called Telegram Drive. 1,200+ stars in 3 months. Built with Tauri, Rust, and React. Cross-platform desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Your Telegram "Saved Messages" becomes your storage. Private channels you create become folders. The app gives you a clean file explorer on top of Telegram's cloud. Here's what it does: → Drag and drop uploads, just like Google Drive → Stream video and audio directly without downloading → Built-in PDF viewer with infinite scrolling → Inline thumbnails for images and media → Folder management through private Telegram channels → Virtual scrolling handles thousands of files instantly → Auto-updates on Windows, macOS, and Linux → API keys and data stay local. No third-party servers. Files up to 2GB on free accounts. 4GB on Telegram Premium ($4.99/month). Upload as many as you want. Here's the wildest part: You log in with your existing Telegram account. Your files live on Telegram's infrastructure. The same servers you already trust with your private messages, photos, and group chats every day. No subscription. No new account. No third-party server in the middle. Your API keys never leave your device. One developer. Three months of work. Replaced a $144/year subscription stack. Google One 2TB: $9.99/month. $120/year. Dropbox Plus 2TB: $11.99/month. $144/year. iCloud+ 2TB: $9.99/month. $120/year. Telegram Drive: $0. Forever. Built with Tauri, Rust, and React. Free and open. (Link in the comments)

    Wait a ******* moment she sold the movies she was asked to take down on Dropbox? Without consent or knowledge of the other person? If a man had did that we would be having conversations about him being dangerous or a predator. About how he is a consent violator. So where is the accountability!!!
