Bosn (@00bosn00) reported2026 and we’re out here building god-tier AI that can debate physics and write symphonies, but Grok still can’t watch a Dropbox, OneDrive, or Discord video link.“Sorry, I can’t watch videos from Dropbox, OneDrive, or most direct file links.”We’re doing all this magic with AI and the video player is stuck in 2015. Fix it, xAI.

Commonwealth Sentinel (@CwealthSentinel) reportedIntruders spent five months inside a stock exchange executive's email, copying it out slowly and hiding in normal Dropbox and OneDrive traffic. No software flaw, so no patch could fix it. When there is nothing to patch, watching is the defense. Know what normal looks like.

Auntieesq (@daniell0930) reported@MikeJShowalter The issue is the use of the data to train models not retention. Acting as if this is the same a Dropbox is disingenuous. They will not use the data to train for non-safety issues. Non-safety issue is doing some heavy lifting there. Do they have an outline of what this means?

Hawk (@iamhawkspire) reported@TheMilitiaGamer @Google nah lol, i'm just rawdogging without any online backups for my larger files atm. might end up checking out dropbox, tho their speeds are super slow on my end.

2Do (@2DoApp) reported@PhilipLeworthy The Android app is going to unfortunately remain on CalDAV + Dropbox sync for now. I'll be updating it to fix a few issues as well as Tablet related compatibility issues but not major features planned. It remains functional the way it is albeit with a few limitations.

alt guy (@0xAlternateGuy) reported@antirez quite suspicious this happens immediately after the Dropbox CEO steps down…

AI Crave (@wecraveai) reportedOpen source NotebookLM alternative with no data limits and AI agents. Same idea as Google's NotebookLM. Same chat-with-your-docs. Same podcast generator. Same cited answers. Except this one has no source limit, no notebook limit, no 200MB file cap, and no Google login. It's called SurfSense. Google NotebookLM vs SurfSense: - Sources per notebook: 50 to 600 → Unlimited - File size cap: 200MB and 500K words → No limit - LLM choice: Gemini only → 100+ models via LiteLLM - Local LLMs: Not allowed → Full Ollama and vLLM support - Self-host: No → Yes, one Docker command - Price: $0, $19.99/mo Pro, or $249.99/mo Ultra → $0 forever Here's the wildest part: It connects to 27+ sources Google can't touch. Notion. Slack. Linear. Jira. GitHub. Discord. Dropbox. OneDrive. Gmail. Confluence. Obsidian. ClickUp. Microsoft Teams. Airtable. Your entire work life, indexed once, searchable from one chat box. 14.4K GitHub stars. 1.4K forks. 6,232 commits. Apache-2.0 license. One honest note: the README says it's not yet production-ready and still being actively developed. But it already does more than NotebookLM does, and the gap is widening every release. This is what NotebookLM should have been from the start. Repo in the first comment.

Detroit Media Magazine (@detroitmediamag) reported@DropboxSupport I don't know who's running this page but you need to fix the glitch that is going on with your latest update. My Dropbox app worked just fine up until your latest update which was about three or four days ago. Maybe even two days ago. I heavily rely on your services and I need access to my account ASAP. There is nothing but a black screen when I open up my Dropbox app hopefully somebody can get back to me with this problem and hopefully one of your technicians gets to work on your end.

Americanrambler (@Ameericanrambl1) reportedThe ******** at the corrupt American Fork Police Department forgot to set the dropbox to private, so they accidentally made all the unredacted videos public. Before they realized their errors, somebody downlaoded them. Here it is.

fercaton (@fercaton) reportedWriting things down isn't weak—it's like training wheels for your ideas. Your brain's not built to be an infinite Dropbox; it's for connecting dots, not hoarding them.

JasonFrostPhoto (@rootbeerphoto) reported@DropboxSupport What? My problem was not about camera uploads.

Informed Choice 🇦🇺🇺🇸🇮🇱 (@DoreyMeryl67438) reported@DropboxSupport I have been trying to contact support unsuccessfully. It seems that my account has been deactivated by accident when another account linked to it was cancelled. I would love to hear back on how to fix this issue. My account was recently renewed so should be there. Thanks

Logan Radcliff (@GTDCANI) reportedOmg OneDrive is terrible! Do better @Microsoft ! Trying to download a folder with 1000 files. OD zips, downloads, says complete. I end up with 5% of my files. Never this issue with Google Drive or DropBox.

Ashutosh Rana ⛓️ (@ashutoshrana_20) reportedMost developers think Rust 🦀became popular because of ownership and borrowing. That's only half the story. Companies aren't adopting Rust because they enjoy fighting the borrow checker. They're adopting it because they're tired of C++-level performance coming with C++-level disasters. Look at where Rust is running today: • Linux kernel components • Windows security systems • Android services • Cloudflare edge infrastructure • AWS Firecracker microVMs • TiKV and Materialize • Discord and Dropbox backend systems • Solana and Polkadot Notice what these systems have in common. They're expensive to get wrong. A memory bug in a toy project is annoying. A memory bug in an operating system, cloud platform, database, or blockchain can cost millions of dollars, create security vulnerabilities, or bring down critical infrastructure. That's why Rust keeps showing up in the same places: • Systems software • Networking • Databases • Cloud infrastructure • Developer tools • Blockchains Not because it's trendy. Because the cost of unsafe software keeps rising. For years, engineers accepted the tradeoff: Performance → use C++ Safety → sacrifice performance Rust challenged that assumption. The result? A growing number of teams no longer see memory safety as a nice-to-have. They see it as a requirement. The ecosystem is still maturing. But Rust isn't fighting for relevance anymore. It's becoming one of the default choices for software where performance, reliability, and security are non-negotiable.
