  On Essentials plan. Ticket #26375062 top support evades the core issue by vaguely blaming my PC environment. I've already verified registry & OS. Stop dismissing verified technical logs and escalate this bug to the dev engineering team now. @DropboxSupport

  3. Incentivizes Centralizing BlockSpace Market Ahhh the crux of the problem "... high-volume data ...". Bitcoin is a monetary protocol used for monetary txs any other use make Bitcoin useless. Monetary txs are small. If you want data then get a DropBox account.

  Then the conversation took a turn. The technician pulled up Activity Monitor and showed him something: 23 apps were running in the background that the customer didn't have open. Adobe Creative Cloud. Spotify. Slack. Microsoft AutoUpdate. Dropbox. Google Drive sync. Three different "helper" apps installed during printer setup years ago. Each one was consuming small amounts of CPU, RAM, and battery cycles 24/7. The technician's words: "Your MacBook isn't slow because it's old. It's slow because it's running 23 jobs nobody hired it to do." System Settings → General → Login Items → look at the lists under both tabs → remove anything that doesn't need to launch automatically. The customer removed 18 of them on the spot.

  He spent two years looking for a bigger problem. Found it on a Chinatown bus in January 2007 when he reached into his bag and realized he'd forgotten his USB drive. Again. He opened his laptop and started coding what would become Dropbox.

  @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%.

  @TodayUpdates0 @RedLineReportt They can be if they want as far as I'm concerned. But the problem is.. that's not how they are voting. It's all the mail in and absentee voting and the anytime dropbox and the counting til they win that's the problem.

  @ocornut @RichardKogelnig Actually, some times the new menu is faster and the classic menu is much slower... but then sometimes, the new menu shows 3 entries called "Loading..." and that's terrible, too! I think one of my W11 PCs has almost instant context menu - the Dropbox notes were from that one.

  Nice, Google Drive / Dropbox is still the go-to for a lot of people, especially for bigger files. But man, the moment you share that link… “Download required to view properly.” Preview looks compressed and ugly Sometimes the link breaks if permissions change Or the client just never downloads it That’s the exact frustration SnapVid @snap_vid was built to fix: Upload once → permanent streaming link No compression, instant play, beautiful previews (even on WhatsApp), no “download first” nonsense. If you ever get tired of the Drive preview pain on your next share, give it a quick test, free tier is unlimited for basics. What’s the main reason you usually pick Drive? File size? Ease? Or something else? Curious to know!

  Writing 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.

  I have the feeling - when I see who is posting this table over and over on here - that this is just a campaign so institutionals can get in cheaper. How am I remotely interested in the statistics within a 1 year window. (apart from the fact that there are many companies on that list that neither have a unique selling point (Dropbox, Doordash, Pinterest etc..) nor were they economically super great investment casess with a lot of upside. It is of course very likely that SPCX will trade extremely volatile within the first year and that we will also see cash-outs by long term private equity holders once the lock-period expires. So if you have cash set aside - no investment advice - consider just not throwing it in all at once. I personally plan on playing this in 3 tranches. 1/3 today, 1/3 on the first significant draw down and then another 1/3 whenever I feel it is appropriate.
