  @DropboxSupport I tried both on every browser AND the app on phone. It just gives me errors when I try to delete anything or upload anything. It's a problem on YOUR end, please fix it. I was able to upload stuff just a few moments ago until this issue started!

  @pvpandroids Just like box and Dropbox and Google gave away free storage and uber sold rides at a loss. It’s a competitive issue to start. At some point they will.

  @jasonlk I remember as a teen, Dropbox set the standard. It was Dropbox, AirBnB, and Uber - as these “new economy” startups that were changing the world. Frankly speaking, Google Drive just started to do more for me and integrated easier sharing down the road. There was no value add I was getting from Dropbox once storage got commoditized.

  @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.

  Drew Houston got rejected by every major VC in Silicon Valley before Dropbox became worth $10B. His story shows why persistence beats perfection. 2007: Houston demos file syncing to VCs. The response was brutal: → "This already exists" → "Google will just build this" → "Not a big enough market" One VC told him: "Why would anyone pay for storage when it's getting cheaper every day?" Houston's mistake: He was pitching technology, not the problem it solved. The pivot moment came when he made a simple 4-minute demo video showing Dropbox in action. No technical jargon. Just: drag file here, access it anywhere. The video hit the front page of Digg. 75,000 signups overnight. Suddenly VCs were calling him. Sequoia led his Series A. The same firm that initially passed. The lesson: VCs don't invest in features — they invest in problems worth solving. Houston learned to sell the pain point (lost files, USB drives, email attachments) before selling the solution. Today Dropbox has 700M+ users and went public at a $9B valuation. The rejections weren't about the product. They were about the pitch. What's the biggest lesson you've learned from getting rejected?

  @C3_NSFTooth Itch io could be the way to go. They've recently started walking back on several limiting NSFW things that were forced on them by payment processors. Else Dropbox and Mega are options as well, though Mega is a terrible website to use and will force their App down your throat.

  🧵Thread... Dropbox in 2012 introduced 2FA due to some security issues in those days and following 6 months before they introduced 2FA. 👇👇

  Why did Microsoft OneDrive just delete all of my Dropbox files? What a fracking PITA. You just created a huge problem for me. This might make me jump to a Mac. I am so disgusted and frustrated by what Microsoft running Windows 11 just did to my computer. Dozens of years of documents....whoosh. @Microsoft

  @thevelvetmonke @fortelabs @tloncorpbot The graph does move with the docs. The graph is the set of links embedded in the documents. I've moved my vaults around from one folder to another, from Dropbox to a regular folder to use Sync, and had no trouble with any of it. That I tell Claude to move the vault and wait a couple of minutes for the move to complete might explain why I find it so easy, but I see no reason to do it in any other way.

  @jimmy_dore Netflix has data centers. So does Dropbox, and cloud flare. Data center does not equal surveillance. It boils down to who owns and operates it.
