@Dropbox Hi, any issues sending the 2FA by SMS? I am not receiving it so I am not able to sign in.

@theshteves it’d be speculative fiction because instead we’ve got Dropbox and Google Drive and the world has moved very far away from a “server in every home!” model

@seldo I feel like if you ask people about running "servers" the answers would come out like this... except for Plex, Dropbox, BitTorrent, and all the things that just "feel" like clients. If UX and config is hard, it's a server. If it's easy, it's a client.

@peepingonpiper Anything you buy will eventually go bad. So unless you frequently backup to multiple storage options, you're going to eventually be hosed. Could be in the next 2 years or 10 years down the line. Cloud storage, like DropBox, might be your safest and simplest option.

@springstmusic No Dropbox, but I do have a Google drive linked on my computer? I don't think it is keeping files on this side tho. As far as I can tell, no files on C drive are growing too, I did have an issue with a Logitech error report growing at an insane rate but even after fixing it

So, the only way to fix I can think of is that, just post everything on subscribestar, or link to google drive like before I use dropbox. That will be like, extremely weak against piracy, but I kinda have no choice if I want to do the individual one month cycle method.

@slatermanzo Hi there, if you're experiencing an issue, we'd recommend disabling Dropbox as a location within the Files app, rebooting your device, and then re-enabling it. You could also try uninstalling/reinstalling the app. We really hope this helps!

@VicedRhino @sofain I will say that getting Dropbox was a huge help. I have 8TB of my wife’s podcast content I produce and having that offloaded off of the drives is great. I can still hydrate some content down when I need to work with it but I maintain low drive overhead.

@skayuy I can only find the option to pause syncing and then re-enable it, but I don't want to pause it manually. I mean I never really had issues with it until now, I think it was maybe just not a great idea to have my dropbox on an external drive

@byGMargarita @hyunaewrites If you save the files in Dropbox you can access them from different computers. Just make sure you only have one instance open at a time ( to avoid syncing issues)

@jstn Only too complicated (for a lot of people) with currently available tooling and deployment infrastructure. If this was something that was possible for the Public for decades, there would be software to make setting up a home web server as easy as setting up Dropbox is today.

Finally figured out why dropbox and other menu extras wouldn't show on my new MacBookPro: they're hiding behind the webcam notch! So frustrating. (No, 12.1 doesn't fix it.) @macbartender helps; so does putting more in Control Center.
