  @SgtJulier1776 @CoffeeBlackMD I would suggest @HunterEsoteric Go to his website, sign up for the emails and look at his resources. He is on YT (Taken down before) and Spotify. Once you get the 1st email go to the bottom of the page and get the complete Dropbox vids. Get his cheatsheet as well!

  You pay Google $10/month to store your files. On Google's servers. Where Google can read them. You pay Dropbox $12/month. On Dropbox's servers. Where Dropbox can read them. You pay Apple $10/month. On Apple's servers. Where Apple can read them. Dropbox was breached in 2024. User emails, hashed passwords, API keys, and OAuth tokens were exposed. There is a tool that syncs your files directly between your own devices. No cloud. No server. No middleman. Ever. It's called Syncthing. 81,900+ stars on GitHub. Your files go directly from one device to another. Peer-to-peer. They never touch a third-party server. Not even Syncthing's. Here's what it does: → Syncs files between any number of devices in real-time. → Peer-to-peer. No central server. Your files go directly between YOUR devices. → TLS encryption with perfect forward secrecy on every connection. → Every device authenticated with a strong cryptographic certificate. → Works over LAN and internet. No port forwarding needed. → Selective folder sharing. Sync different folders with different people. → File versioning. Deleted or changed something? Roll it back. → Runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, FreeBSD, Solaris, and more. → Web dashboard to monitor everything from your browser. → No account. No sign-up. Install it. Share a device ID. Done. Here's the wildest part: There is no Syncthing server. There is no Syncthing cloud. There is no company storing your data. The protocol is open and documented. There is nothing between your devices except an encrypted tunnel. Google has shut down 293 products. Dropbox has been breached. iCloud photos have leaked. Every cloud service is one policy change away from scanning everything you store. Syncthing can never shut down your files. Because your files were never on their servers. Dropbox Plus: $12/month. $144/year. Google One 2TB: $10/month. $120/year. iCloud+ 2TB: $10/month. $120/year. Syncthing: $0. Unlimited devices. Unlimited storage. Your hardware. Your files.

  @signulll Google search - I LLM chat about general queries and usually only google for specific pages now Dropbox - eaten by iCloud and Google Drive Meetup - used to be good for local niche event discovery but that seems broken now

  Dropbox tried paid ads first. Expensive. Low conversion. Stopped. Then built distribution into the product. 3,900% growth. Lesson: Test channels. Kill what doesn't pull. Double down on what does naturally.

  @MaxNordau I’m getting false positives for phishing on Dropbox so they are being hypersensitive rn. Literally do not share links to the open internet and the number of clicks is probably near zero. Didn’t even get an email telling me about the problem. Then there was a malware false positive today that was quickly resolved within 18 hours >check these digits bro he shares his digits lolol

  @SuiNetwork @thewalrus @WalrusProtocol Every file you store on Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud — Google owns the server. Google can delete it. Google can go down. Walrus changes that. It's a decentralized storage protocol built by Mysten Labs, where your data lives across hundreds of independent nodes worldwide.

  Wait a ******* moment she sold the movies she was asked to take down on Dropbox? Without consent or knowledge of the other person? If a man had did that we would be having conversations about him being dangerous or a predator. About how he is a consent violator. So where is the accountability!!!

  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?
