@AuthorElyseC Similar, corrupted backups. It‘s just so annoying because I DID back my write up. Just Dropbox overwriting one file due to synchronisation issues and overwriting the backups with older versions too. I hate it so much

@troypoint It's a joke! If it's to do with copyright then it shows how policed the internet is becoming! Filelinked itself doesn't host the apps so how is it doing wrong? Why hasn't Dropbox been taken down also as that's where the links come from!

@LasciviousFox Problem us, most of my interactions are done while on mobile, so renaming things then and there get complicated. I use a Dropbox sync to backup and save everything to sort whenever I get to set down at the desktop again

@JamesLiamCook What I don't understand is why an app needs it's own server for just sharing data with another person? Why not use Google Drive or Dropbox for example?

Just got a conditional accept on a paper. I checked my “get info” button to see when I opened that directory in Dropbox. Started it in 2014, conditional accept 2021. I bore some responsibility for it though; had some stuff happen that slowed us down, but not by a lot. #economics

@utarlig Code blocks could only decrease performance when using Dropbox, since they have to be parsed every time. Since you are working in the iCloud section, there shouldn’t be any issues. Do these lags only happen in the beginning after opening the app or also after 5 minutes?

@JJT Thanks for the screenshot! If it's not much trouble, can you also send another screenshot of the Dropbox permissions settings? On Android, you can find this by opening system “Settings” and finding “Dropbox” in the “Apps” section.

if you download a dropbox folder for offline use, then try to open a file from it using a file browser, you'll only have access to a version of the folder that downloads the files when called. i downloaded a file into it and now it doesn't save without uploading to the server.

The advantage that comes with paying for Cloud storage such as AWS Elastic Block Store or something like Dropbox among others is that you can roll back to data backup snapshots thereby nullifying the potentially disastrous effects of ransomware to a large extent. Not a total fix.

Looks like it was a permissions issue, leaving that evil company @Dropbox messed up my MacOS. I fixed that issue now and am reinstalling AE again.

@JonnyB_ Yuuup, it's truly terrible. Amazon had to ask me a pop-quiz of things I'd ordered and how much. Dropbox refused to ever give me account again 😢

@MrGreenLeaf730 My M1 MacBook Air (16GB/1TB) is. Not every time, but often. I think it’s a Rosetta issue, which sucks because I use Adobe (including some Apple Silicon pre-release) , Dropbox and Spotify, which are still Intel processes.
