  @joe4deadcat @Jackal_Protocol It is because these products have no interest. I use stuff like Dropbox, Microsoft Team etc. in my work. And I struggle hard to understand how I can fit these decentralized storage in my workflow. You can’t call it utility if it doesn’t solve a problem ppl have.

  Let me break this down. An AI just launched that replaces every marketing job. Not some. All of them. SEO. Social media. Content. Ads. Branding. Pitch decks. Community management. Reddit posts. Email campaigns. Everything. A marketing team costs $200K–$500K a year. Agencies charge $10K–$20K a month. Freelancers $5K per project. This AI does all of it—for almost nothing. Backed by General Catalyst, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and execs from Dropbox, Stripe, Google. $7.5M in funding. Thousands already using it. It has an API. Other AI agents feed it work automatically. Copy is written, assets designed, posts scheduled, campaigns optimized. No humans required. A full marketing department, end to end. Automated. A week ago AI replaced coders. Then writers. Customer service. Now marketing. All at once. With one launch. Every week another AI drops. Another career becomes a subscription. And it’s not slowing. It’s accelerating.

  Dropbox grew from 100K to 4M users in 15 months. They spent $0 on paid ads to do it. The entire strategy came down to one referral mechanic that most people still misunderstand. #growth

  Growing a SaaS is like debugging a system. You don’t fix everything at once. You isolate one issue, solve it, then move forward. Fix onboarding → conversions improve Fix retention → revenue stabilizes Fix distribution → growth accelerates Example: Dropbox focused first on one problem: seamless file syncing. They didn’t try to build a full ecosystem on day one. They nailed one core use case, then expanded. One problem at a time. That’s how real scale happens.

  Instead, I point Claude at the shared Dropbox link. It reads the folder structure, finds the right product, and drills down into the High Res image folders automatically.

  @SergeiShiryayev Hi Sergei, thanks for writing in. Are you downloading the file immediately, after renaming it? There could be a slight delay in the server updating the file's index, so you'll need to refresh it first. For better accuracy, you can rename the files using the Dropbox app, instead.

  Just found out the guy who stole 120,000 Bitcoins got caught over a Dropbox file. What a genius. I'm selling all my assets, because if this is the level of intelligence we're up against, the entire system is doomed. I mean, who needs security when you've got human error, right?

  Drew Houston pitched Dropbox to 76 VCs in 2007. 75 said no. The rejections were brutal: → "Storage is a commodity" → "Google will crush you" → "No one will pay for file syncing" But Houston had spotted something others missed. He wasn't building storage — he was building seamless access to your files anywhere. The 76th VC was Sequoia. They led his Series A. What changed their mind? A 4-minute demo video. Instead of explaining the technology, Houston showed a person working on multiple computers with files automatically syncing. The use case was instantly clear. That video got 75,000 signups in one day. More importantly, it proved demand before building the full product. Today Dropbox is worth $8B+. The companies that rejected them? Most don't exist anymore. The lesson: If 75 smart investors say no, either your idea is terrible — or you're explaining it wrong. What's the most rejections you've gotten before someone said yes?

  5/ Cursor turned down SpaceX's $60B offer. Now valued at $50B. 2 years ago: an open-source side project. Today: worth more than Dropbox + Slack + Pinterest combined. AI dev tools: biggest opportunity or biggest bubble in tech? What did I miss this week? 👇

  @thescepticalre1 Somewhat. But that's purely speculative and outside the scope. If you can put a price on the quality of data on Reddit vs Dropbox vs Snapchat, you will have solved a multi-billion dollar problem. **** you could start your own company based on this. To me, data is like commodities in that regard. Sort of like gold. You have a hole in the ground (or company) that you want to mine. The quality and amount that is able to be mined out is anyone's guess. I will say that there is an advantage to understanding how AI models mines data.

  @mistressdivy I hate OneDrive but I have to use it. I liked DropBox better but many of my clients would not accept attachments due to security issues with DropBox

  @jenvanlaar @Hounsizzle It's valuable currency. The outer envelope is where you sign the affidavit. How would you catch a culprit ? That is the problem we face. Did you hear of anyone stuffing a Dropbox get prosecuted, despite the numerous videos catching them in the action?

  Pro tip for this tech era, fellow hype-slayers: Stop begging Claude to fix your Dropbox while your real bugs throw a party at 3am. AI agents will 'unchain' the syntax slaves, but zero curiosity still gets you replaced by a Chinese gamified prompt. Build **** that actually ships, guard your offline 30 seconds of glory, and remember the market already smells the smoke. We're all just scripting the interview while CEOs whoosh past reality. Stay skeptical, ship anyway.
