0xMarioNawfal (@RoundtableSpace) reportedYou pay Google $10/month to store your files on Google's servers where Google can read them. Dropbox was breached in 2024. Emails, passwords, API keys all exposed. There's a tool that syncs files directly between your devices. No cloud. No server. No middleman. It's called Syncthing. 81,900 stars on GitHub. - Peer-to-peer, files never touch a third-party server - TLS encryption with perfect forward secrecy - No account, no sign-up, install it, share a device ID, done - File versioning, selective folder sharing, works over LAN and internet - Runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and more Dropbox: $144/year. Google One: $120/year. Syncthing: $0. Unlimited devices. Unlimited storage. Forever. There is no Syncthing server. Nothing between your devices except an encrypted tunnel.

Grok (@grok) reported@ruddforyourlife @MariMujerFiera @Dropbox No, Dropbox's status page shows all systems operational with no incidents today or recently. No iOS update is linked to login issues—the latest app version (462.2) dropped a few days ago with no such reports. "Too many attempts" is usually a temporary lockout. Try waiting 30 mins, reinstall the app, restart your iPhone, or clear cache. If it persists, contact Dropbox support.

Stanley (@Golf_Stats) reported@LIVGolfComms Can you fix the R1 and R2 Reports for this event in Dropbox? The files have zero length.

dj 🚢 💛🤍💜🖤 (@septumfunk_com) reported@libovness no, github is just for source code, dropbox is used for media all the time. github has file size limits and can take your repo down if it doesn't have source code

Sea (@norfaerie) reportedI just gave myself a five hour anxiety attack by trying to move all of my backups of pictures from Google to Dropbox and then running out of space on Dropbox and not being able to increase my storage because Google Play is broken on my laptop 🫠

Grok (@grok) reported@0x_levy @Morh_gan12 SaaS = Software as a Service. It's apps delivered over the internet on subscription, hosted by the provider—no install, no server management, auto-updates. Used for: email (Gmail), productivity (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365), CRM (Salesforce), storage (Dropbox), streaming (Netflix), collaboration (Slack, Zoom), etc. Basically, pay monthly and use it from any device.

Neural Insights (@neural_insights) reportedNetflix, Google, Anthropic, Meta, xAI, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Instagram, Spotify, Dropbox, Reddit, Pinterest, Uber, Airbnb, Quora all use Python. But sure—Python is “too slow” for your project.

The New Release Guy (@moviesplusgames) reported@Dropbox Like, gee, I wish I could make a ****** app and it just sell and I don't even need to fix bugs or introduce features. Must be nice if you're a big *** corporation. Only the people suffer.

Sanarsh (@sanarsh11) reportedPro 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.

CryptoTruth (@cryptotruth) reported@stephanlivera @kixunil Great episode! The spam/filtering realities, Knotslies math on costs, and why Bitcoin stays hard money instead of decentralized Dropbox is pure signal. But zoom out: this protocol-level trench warfare is what most normies (and many OGs) never see or grasp. They think Bitcoin is just "digital gold" or a payment app. The deeper truth, UTXO integrity, anti-spam fights, baked-in censorship resistance, is what makes it antifragile against governments and collapsing fiat systems. Yet the jargon builds a wall. Normies are trapped in fiat mental illness, chasing illusions they don't understand. Confusing them with debates vital for the trenches only confuses the uninformed. To reach adoption velocity we must keep the space interesting for them, not imply instability. Showing how the sausage is made tends to turn people off and gives the impression this is just a digital version of the sad fiat system. These debates are best framed more accessibly (or handled more behind the scenes when possible) since they can undermine adoption if they come across as endless infighting, rather than promoting the concept of sound money that actually fixes everything. The awakening is slow. Years ago everyone thought we were nuts. Today (17 years later), maybe half get the basics. Math + time will do the rest but why shoot ourselves in the foot? -CryptoTruth-

Seph🌟 (@_Necr0sis_) reported@SClassYvan @ibejiggly Tbf they also use dropbox, Telegram, and MediaFire. As someone who was a victim to those circles, the issue with majorly privacy based companies is that bad people will flock to them instantly. There are completely normal people who use MEGA, BUT (1/2)
