When you upload to Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud you’re not really owning your data. You’re renting space on someone else’s server. And it comes with strings attached.

@clarkcoffey @BetterPitchGuy I can survive using OneDrive. Linking files was a terrible experience, however. I was extremely unhappy using Dropbox and very happy when our company ditched it.

Got a product idea? Don't just build it. Is it a painkiller or a vitamin? Real-world Example: @Dropbox. They didn't invent cloud storage, but they made it incredibly simple to "just work." People didn't know they needed it until they used it. Calculation: - Will people pay for this? (Purchase Intent) - Is it better than what's out there? (Differentiation) - Does it solve a real problem? (Relevance) Aim for a "definite purchase" score of over 30% in concept tests. The best products often solve a problem users don't even know how to articulate yet. Insight: Stop chasing features. Start chasing a feeling. The best products aren't just used; they're adopted into people's lives.

the problem is not that it's swift on the server. it's the client implementation. it just sucks, at least when you compare it to Google Drive, Dropbox, Microsoft Onedrive and many many others

OneKey also supports FIDO & FIDO2 for secure logins on: ✅ Google ✅ GitHub ✅ Dropbox ✅ Binance ✅ Coinbase …and more. Wallet + passwordless login = total control.

If any of you use @Dropbox, I would highly recommend that you move to some other platform. Their @DropboxSupport is probably the worst support I have ever seen. I logged a ticket 2 weeks ago and they hardly made any effort to fix the issue. They will post an comment on the ticket only once a day... it's shocking! I will be moving my customer to SharePoint.

My issue are twice, first is that dropbox started to use your data for AI training which I am against, and second is that I draw a lot of uh... contentious content, so with nextcloud I am usin a server that I pay that is owned by someone I trust wont just go into a moral crusade against me

10. Mailbox App → Dropbox ($100M, 2013) A hyped minimalist email app sold to Dropbox pre-launch. It never integrated well and was shut down. But: – The team was elite – Dropbox wanted mobile UX + buzz

Dropbox (Landing Pages Tool) 📦 “Share work, not chaos.” A bold headline. A massive CTA. No distractions. Their subpage for landing pages says it all: ✅ Problem → Solution ✅ Call to action ✅ Nothing else.

Decentralized Storage: The New Era Traditional storage like Google Drive & Dropbox relies on centralized servers—easy targets for hacks, shutdowns & censorship. Web3 flips this. Your data lives everywhere, not in one fragile server.

Imagine this: You’re running 10 agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini… pick your squad) They interact with 20 tools (Google Drive, Slack, Uber, Dropbox…) Each combo = 1 OAuth flow. That’s 200 OAuth connections to manage. We call this the M x N OAuth Problem.

True MVP = one core workflow that solves one specific problem completely. Dropbox MVP was literally just a video showing file sync. Instagram started as Burbn with 10+ features, then stripped down to photo sharing only. Less features = clearer value prop = better user feedback.

@CodeWerm Then I’ll work on personal storage integration, so the data doesn’t save on your phone or your cloud, but goes into that home backup server! Definitely not on my servers. I don’t want to compete with Dropbox or Google drives of this world haha.
