    @SlmnMANUTD @WindowsLatest I didn't care about updating to the latest build. I cared about how Windows 11's AI deleted my Dropbox files from not only my desktop, but Dropbox itself! I managed to find them in DropBox's web Deleted Files folder and recover them. On top of this Windows decided to move all of my files that were on my hard drive to One Drive without my permission. And in the process of doing so created multiple subfolders D: OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/OneDrive/My Documents/etc I brought it over the BestBuy to repair the OS because there were other problems, so I cannot tell you how many layers I had to click through to get to my actual documents. I was able to recover the apps that we affected by the update (ScanSnap, Adobe Illustrator, Acrobat, etc) doing a System Restore. But that didn't help with my files.

    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?

    @mnsibley "Dropbox issues" was always a plausible excuse for me. Best part of being retired: nobody says "I'll put it in the Dataroom for you..." One time I renamed my colleague's trash can "Dataroom" on her desktop. My work load decreased 20%.

    Which company has the best software ecosystem? Microsoft Google Apple Zoho Or the open web (Notion, Dropbox, OpenAI, etc.) One login. One ecosystem. Everything you need to work. If you had to choose just one stack to run your entire life and business, which would you pick and why?

    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?

    @DumbMoneyCapitl That could be argued, sure. But it misses the bigger picture. The real issue isn’t whether Jim and SCS have a working Dropbox—they clearly do. The problem is that VC funds are desperately hunting for places to deploy all their capital, and businesses like this simply can’t deliver the returns those funds require because of their heavy capex profile. It’s a classic square peg in a round hole from a funding and returns standpoint.

    @DropboxSupport Still not working. Is there an ETA for when your website and app will be operational again?

    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
