  @mrsgcomics Onedrive honestly was the best one of the filesyncing services I've used over the time but don't rely on that alone if **** hits the fan. Dropbox (2expensive), Mega (2sluggish), Idrive (obsolete), Gdrive (risky+slow unless you use that app but even then), haven't tried Proton.

  @CantEverDie Keep making burner Gmail accounts and sign up for the free stuff. I jest, because that's terrible practice, although I did know an attorney IRL that would do that to daisy-chain those Dropbox sites. Infinite free storage, just in 2.5GB chunks.

  @DropboxSupport I have been trying to contact support unsuccessfully. It seems that my account has been deactivated by accident when another account linked to it was cancelled. I would love to hear back on how to fix this issue. My account was recently renewed so should be there. Thanks

  On Essentials plan. Ticket #26375062 top support evades the core issue by vaguely blaming my PC environment. I've already verified registry & OS. Stop dismissing verified technical logs and escalate this bug to the dev engineering team now. @DropboxSupport

  Problem: I didn't have where to save useful links, because my main pc isn't always on. Solution: Told Hermes on my minipc, which is always on, to save the links which I send to a file in dropbox. Then, I told Hermes from my main pc to make a cronjob to check that file every day at 9 am and save the links in their respective category in the dashboard.

  Intruders spent five months inside a stock exchange executive's email, copying it out slowly and hiding in normal Dropbox and OneDrive traffic. No software flaw, so no patch could fix it. When there is nothing to patch, watching is the defense. Know what normal looks like.

  Dropbox solved a simple problem: How do you access your files from anywhere? Cloud storage became popular because people wanted their files available on every device. Convenience drives technology.

  @laz1m0v @adam3us You want a multifunctional database. Go try BSV or Microsoft SQL Server or Arweave. They have what you want. Bitcoin is money. Not a Pepe Dropbox. Go take your Pepes elsewhere, please. Then we wouldn't even need filters if everyone behaved in the spirit of Cash instead of Pepe.

  Steve Jobs told Drew Houston that Dropbox was a feature, not a product. Dropbox is now worth $8 billion. In 2007 Drew Houston was a 24 year old MIT student who kept forgetting his USB drive. So he built Dropbox. Within a year Steve Jobs called him into Apple HQ. Apple wanted to buy Dropbox and shut it down. Houston said no. Jobs told him directly that Dropbox was a feature, not a product, and that Apple would build it themselves. Apple launched iCloud in 2011 specifically to kill Dropbox. It did not work. Dropbox crossed 100 million users in 2012. Then 200 million. Then 500 million. Apple tried again. iCloud Drive in 2014. Same result. Then the enterprise market shifted. Slack, Notion and Google Drive carved up Dropbox's user base from every direction. Revenue growth slowed. The stock dropped 50% from its IPO price. But Dropbox never died. Today 700 million people have used it. 17 million paying customers. $8 billion valuation. Still independent. Still running. Steve Jobs built a trillion dollar company. He called Dropbox a feature. The feature outlasted him and two attempts by Apple to replace it. Drew Houston never forgot his USB drive again.

  “consumer doesn't run on problems” 👏 Consumers will pay to be entertained. Businesses will pay to be productive. This is a lesson the tech industry is forced to learn every decade or so. Apple, Microsoft, Google, Mozilla, Dropbox, Evernote, Quip, AirTable, Trello, etc have all learned this the hard way. We saw it play out in crypto. Today it’s playing out in OpenAI vs Anthropic.

  @Voxyz_ai Doesn't sound like a Codex problem, sounds like a Dropbox problem. Syncthing doesn't take your files offline, ever.
