@hmr_makes_art I've got some stuff on external hard drives and places like Dropbox and Google Drive. So, it's not like I'm down and out. But I am gonna be missing a lot of source files and stuff. Like .PSD and .clip files. It's also been a minute since we've talked. Glad to hear from you!

@ConsiderMeCat No problem! Another way to share securely is Google, Microsoft, or Dropbox file sharing. It requires the other person to have an account on that service, but is reasonably secure. If you find your email is getting compromised you may want to look at two-factor authentication.

@doriantaylor Not mutually exclusive! Other industries adopt the new thing on a few year lag, so it's incremental to tech folks at that point, but it is still genuinely transformative to others e.g. Dropbox, boring to everyone who already ran their own server, was big for everyone else

@briancaiazza You’re gonna want to go with Dropbox…way better service—Drive reverted some of my files to previous versions and Google was unable to fix that

Me: downgrades Dropbox paid plan after 8 years, 2 months after last renewal, humbly asks @DropboxSupport to issue a prorated refund since I'm going to double my spend this year on other @Dropbox services. @DropboxSupport : nah man we're good. You have a good day tho!

@DropboxSupport my most frequently-used file has not been updated on the mobile app in over a week. For all I know, other files may likewise not be updating. What’s the cause and what’s the fix?

@KimStrandli Alright. I tried Dropbox via Docker and it just didn't work as I'd hoped. Way too slow download speeds for some reason. So I've jumped back to good old CloudSync for now. I tried a speedtracker container and that recorded my full speed, so something weird with the Dropbox :(

@LinksysCares NOT!! You have expensive routers that don’t work properly. When reporting a problem I had to spend 5 hours on calls to prove it was your equipment’s issue then instructed to use a Dropbox link for special firmware that worked briefly now doesn’t. More phone hours?

Discovered today that I have a HQ version of Beyoncé falling down the stairs at the Beyoncé Experience stored on my old dropbox account. It has been scrubbed from the internet (in HQ) and I am honestly scared for my life to post it.

@makirollOFC We have a fabric recycling company here in NYC with a dropbox. I usually bring textiles and fabrics over to them. It comes in handy when a wrestler you used to like ends up being accused of terrible things and you have T-shirts and socks to get rid of -_-

@DropboxSupport Hello, I have problems creating a shared link - whenever I try to create one I get a message says I don't have permission. This didn't happen last time so I don't know what is going on - could I get some support?

@ejtaub @TravelGov There are close to 90k people in one of the Dropbox appointment related telegram group looking for Dropbox appointment. With limited slots and 3 login attempts people are struggling day and night to book an appointment.

@FelicityHannah I find it really good for use on a single device - a laptop, say. BUT not so good when using multiple devices: syncing is an issue as it uses Dropbox rather than iCloud. If you get out of sync you can have complications.

@USAndMumbai Next steps once we determine our eligibility? Please provide more information than the link to the state dept announcement. My CGI login still directs me to the (forever) unavailable interview scheduling page. How to I get a Dropbox appt?

@DjangoWexler They get the dropbox link and can't figure out how to download it. (Problem now solved via old-skool email attachments and multiple emails.)

@cstross Hmm, that's a problem then. Web uploads are sketch but they are convenient for communicating with brain-dead systems. There's no technical reason they can't get it via Dropbox, right? They just refuse?

@DunneWriting Got it. Then the former. I'm still on the free version for both dropbox and gdrive and have not had issues yet

If you're smart you'll literally tape it to the desk, to avoid bumping it too hard and losing data. If you're a cool kid, you'll just get an SSD, to avoid that issue. If you're really, REALLY cool, you'll have a third copy of your **** on Dropbox or Google Drive.

@PabloReports Yup, ZERO appointments for drop box and system kicks you out for 72 hours if you login too many times. WTF there are no Dropbox appointments

An MVP of DropBox could probably be made today on chain but right now the costs of storing files would be really damn high. Eventually the cost should go down but we'll have to see.

@AndrewIsHisName Day One app connected to Dropbox so it’s the same journal from phone to iPad to computer. But also a handwritten journal, because sometimes I need the feeling of pen on paper. The physical act of writing ties down the moment better than electronic, it takes more time though…

So at least I’ve got my cloud backups, right? I keep one set of files in Dropbox (which I pay for) and Tulane’s Box (which I don’t). But Box was knocked offline by Ida. Had I forgotten my laptop, I would have been down to Dropbox alone. (6/10)

@IanDavey773 @Dropbox Oof. Is that what the local syncing software does? I only use it in a browser on desktop & phone app. I'd given up on their software years ago. (Locally I just have a NAS server.)

@DropboxSupport methinks Paper is broken on Safari. I'm able to pull it up on Firefox no problem, but no love on Safari. Also, in the mobile app, can you work on making text linkable?

Do not use @Dropbox if you have any issues with your saved files. Their customer service is horrible. Anybody have a suggestion for an alternative online storage platform for creatives?
