    @Michilines1 @LinaHidalgoTX In Texas you need a reason to vote absentee. One of the requirements for those under 65 is to not be in their district. If they are using a dropbox they have broken the rule. Jail are collected by jailers and the elderly should use the US Mail. So tell me about why we need them?

    @Aaron_Derfel @globeandmail @geoffreyyork All journalists need fully to internalize an information cycle of the type of Gmail-Safari-Word-Dropbox-Twitter. Should be taught in high schools. It is pathetic to block a fellow journalist just because you don’t grasp the issues. And don’t want to.

    @WordsFromOttawa Why not heed the warning and forego the investigation? Are you running anything weird? When I removed dropbox, I cleared up a pile of system ( I can't recall if they were specifically disk, but I think they were) errors once.

    I need new models to promote if anyone has a model that’s brand new or just starting off let me know. Even down low ones you know of. I need to get this **** popping again. Ready to get a **** or fart model some clout. Send them my way. Btw telegram is a no go Dropbox now pm me

    @Dropbox @DropboxSupport requiring multiple confirmations and hiding another confirmation button that you have to scroll down to find when you want to cancel is absolute garbage and beyond shady. I thought I cancelled last month only to find another charge on my CC.

    So here’s the issue,I understand most of you are innocent,but ONE person who bought my Dropbox was selling my link. now I have no trust for ANYONE who previously bought it, if you had my Db I’m going to need another 10$ +proof that you buy other sw content or suhm #BuyingContent

    THE THING IS, Kanye is not wrong about artists making jack **** on streaming. Him dropping the album exclusively on stem player could make him tons more money but the only issue is that it's finna gonna go Platinum on Dropbox. This is just him protesting the services.

    jt (@JamTeezy) reported

    @JulsBudau I hope so, she has a thing that says "NO EXTENSIONS" on the dropbox but I also have an academic accommodation thing so I'm really hoping she is chill. the only issue is that i don't have access to a rapid test.

    @rosenz I do not like Dropbox and I want as little as possible to do with “google” drive … I have an issue with google in general so I avoid them as much as possible!

    @uttiyo_sarkar I loved Inbox for that reason: you could keep your, ahem, inbox clean. Before that I used Mailbox - created by Dropbox - for that same reason. I'm a neat freak, I like to keep my inbox tidy. Such a shame both apps were shut down

    Matt Osbond (@mattosbond) reported

    @ruskin147 We used to have this problem, seemed to be duplicating to iCloud instead of moving, despite optimize being ticked. Moved to Dropbox, and it’s no longer a problem. We keep a small iCloud sub for a curated shared album with family.

    I dare a bear to find a problem with this Dropbox $DBX earnings report.. everything this market is looking for plus an additional $1.2B stock buyback authorization.

  • JacobThomas106

    I have gotten a lot of messages over the last week, basically my dropbox and google drive got taken down. It will be a while until all links are fixed

  • Carnage4Life
    Dare Obasanjo (@Carnage4Life) reported

    @Xhanti_Bomela @ThomasBurkhartB @NCR_972113 Twitter is a network not a single user system like Dropbox. You have to store relationships such as who replied to this thread and who sent me DMs. Sharding does not solve that problem without redesigning to move all user data to the EU which is a huge redesign for any system.

    … I dropped my Dropbox back down to 25$ since I no longer have a job… if anyone is interested…

  • blindbat84
    Sarah Russell ☃️ (@blindbat84) reported

    The only problem I'm seeing with the new computer is that even with just two apps running and necessary ones like dropbox and one drive in the background, ram is damn near maxing out for no damn reason. This makes no sense at all with a SSD and 16 gigs of ram.

    @alex_moukala The Google drive and the Dropbox both seem to be broken, I want to sing for you my Angel of funk

    $DBX Q4 earnings EPS $0.41 vs $0.37 estimate Revenue $565.5M vs $558.3M estimate Dropbox also announced a repurchase of an additional $1.2 billion of its Class A common stock. The stock is currently down 1.23% after hours despite briefly trading higher by 8% after the release.

    Did anyone else start getting @Dropbox errors claiming illegal characters in filenames today? These are files that have been synced for years, and the characters aren't illegal in a modern OS.

    @logseq guys, which cloud storage you can recommend for sync between Mac & iOS instead of iCloud (very slow & bug sync) and Dropbox?

    If you are having trouble accessing your Dropbox through Ios Files app, sign out of DB, turn off Files access to Db, then sign back in and enable through files again. Works as it should now.

    Richard Hyman (@cityWitt) reported

    @RicO2O @9to5mac Well, my business uses dropbox, and dropbox for businesses £12 per month per user, though granted the storage is 5 TB in total, but I’ve never had a sink issue with dropbox. I’ve had entire logic projects with hours of progress saved vanish because it synced the wrong version

  • lisrock
    Miss Lis (@lisrock) reported

    @holliesplaining Texted a friend the other day to check a dropbox link for me (client swore up and down was not working (it was) Texting somebody a misc dropbox saying “hey check this for me?”I felt super shady, I made sure to emphasize it was me which of course sounds even more shady.

  • kipps

    @undefinedhandle Yes, I’ve had to move to Dropbox to get a workable system. Microsoft was completely unhelpful. High CPU usage, memory leaks, crashes. It’s completely broken

    Josh (@MoshJosh) reported

    @BladersHD @flixier_pro @Webex I, too, need support. My messages have been unanswered for weeks. Your dropbox import is broken... or at least MINE is. This is one of the most important features for me. Could you PLEASE respond to my help request in the site?

    Dust has to settle on the photo re-org (3 devices syncing to the cloud) but: Sorted 5K pix in 2 (albeit long) days. Just like msgs is zippy fast, even when the interwebs are down, iCloud is so fast compared to Dropbox. * everything got better once the OS got updated
