Turned ON FileVault encryption because why ******** did the company issue not have this on smh. If I’m gonna bring this work laptop into my private Dropbox-like scheme so I don’t have to fuss around for desktop wallpaper, I demand it be a secure device.

@tonydowler Hi Tony, we hope you don't mind us jumping in. We saw your tweet, and wanted to see if we could assist. Where exactly are you experiencing the sync issue? Is it safe to assume that you're referring to the Dropbox desktop app installed on your computer? Let us know.

Dropbox has really failed hard, hard! For pictures. Been using google photos for free for years and it’s just so good and so cheap in comparison that I see no reason to use clunky (and slow to upload on phone) dropbox anymore (at least for photos)

@blakeir I know it isn't the point of this post, but I love this guys argument against Dropbox. "I can already do this by manually setting up an FTP server on Linux! No way Dropbox is 100x more straight-forward & accessible!"

Dropbox: "We noticed that you haven't added any files recently." Me: "This is surely unrelated to the fact that you hamstrung the number of devices I can install Dropbox on and want to charge over $100/year to 'fix' that."

I'm so ******* frustrated I'm ready to break down crying again. My mom is the only one who offered to watch the video of the cops and I can't figure out how to explain to a 62 year old how to setup a Gmail. Dropbox is just on the friggin moon, so that's out. I'm so not okay.

Anyone else having issues with @onedrive? Two weeks getting messages that my archives have been corrupted and I have to restore my folders a week, losing a lot of work. I think I'll be saving all my files on Dropbox again.

@timsoulo @DropboxSupport they're full of "sneaky" when you're cancelling. AFTER I cancelled suddenly files I'd deleted returned... and the only way to fix it? you guessed it, resubscribe. I told them to fix it or I delete the entire account. Scam Alert.

@DropboxSupport - terrible experience trying to use Dropbox Passwords. Long term Dropbox user, decided to try - installed app on Android, ok (it seems). Then tried install on Mac - though account recognised from already installed Dbx app, verification looping fail. #12083559

@HackingGavin I get the spokesperson for the govt calling it a server, but why do we when we know it’s literally just storage space. Not far from what Dropbox or OneDrive is. This one was just free for public access. Do we call these type services servers?

@nicklockwood @steipete The issue, briefly, is that when Dropbox encounters a sync conflict, it moves files aside. This causes issues if it chose mismatched versions of different objects (files) in the .*** directory. My recommendation would be, just move the repos out. They're already synchronized.
