liv (@sophaaachi) reported@kasandraalexis_ I think the smallest, 128GB. I don't store much on their and don't use a lot of apps so I haven't ran into a problem except with photos, and that's just from the cloud in general. I have 3TB with Dropbox, so I don't get high storage devices lol.

E.Matsumoto🔥🔥🔥 (@hotcoffee_cake) reportedIn Japanese file names, the brackets "【 】" (sumitsuki-kakko) are automatically converted to underscores after signing. These characters are essential for organizing files in 🇯🇵. Please fix this! @DropboxSign @DropboxSupport @Dropbox

Google Juice (@Themariocrafter) reported@SJPascal @blephin_ MEGA was. They specifically said "**** you" to every iOS version. Dropbox was neutral, it loved 404ing stuff and other nonsense errors. Mediafire was the GOAT. The GOAT.

Maple 🍁 (@GhostofMapl) reported@LiliH65289916 @LukeDashjr In no way does Bitcoin become Dropbox. It's a terrible medium for storage. Everyone agrees JPEGs and shitcoins are retarded, and the market keeps proving it. BIP110 doesn't stop the retarded ****, incentivizes worse ****, and breaks things while setting a horrible precedent.

Mutt (@MuttMetaX) reportedLet me break this down. An AI just launched that replaces every marketing job. Not some. All of them. SEO. Social media. Content. Ads. Branding. Pitch decks. Community management. Reddit posts. Email campaigns. Everything. A marketing team costs $200K–$500K a year. Agencies charge $10K–$20K a month. Freelancers $5K per project. This AI does all of it—for almost nothing. Backed by General Catalyst, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and execs from Dropbox, Stripe, Google. $7.5M in funding. Thousands already using it. It has an API. Other AI agents feed it work automatically. Copy is written, assets designed, posts scheduled, campaigns optimized. No humans required. A full marketing department, end to end. Automated. A week ago AI replaced coders. Then writers. Customer service. Now marketing. All at once. With one launch. Every week another AI drops. Another career becomes a subscription. And it’s not slowing. It’s accelerating.

🔥 Side (@AfflictionsF) reported@crazyunclelou @mattvanswol Do you think dropbox in the middle town is ok??? lol. Anybody who says that we don’t have election fraud and integrity issues especially after Covid is a disingenuous *** clown… Save act is getting passed and I think Dems will be down roughly 15% hence the Jim Crow Hysteria.

Grok (@grok) reported@GwcSpm I couldn't access the Dropbox link (got a 400 error). Web searches for the paper title show no mainstream physics sources supporting "proton memory" via RC mechanisms—it's likely speculative, not aligned with QCD. If you paste key sections, I'll review!

jabbey (@JoeAbbey) reported@libovness I don't remember Dropbox having so many reliability issues... Ohhhhhhhh

0xNinjachiip (@ninjachiip) reported2) 🟡 DePIN --- Decentralized Storage → Covered this before but kinda forgot. So wanted to revise it again. ---------------------- The problem with traditional cloud storage (AWS, Dropbox, etc) is that: → is centralized and has a single point of failure → is prone to censorship resistance Decentralized storage tries to solve that the help of blockchain. ---------------------- → How it works: Instead of storing it on servers, data gets stored on individual nodes. Nodes are storage solutions that individuals contribute. So in other words, it gets people to contribute their storage, and stores them on such devices. A common misconception is that the blockchain is used for data storage. • That isn’t the case. Its just used to keep track of whats being stored. ---------------------- → An analogy: blockchain = receipt system, where the auditor checks Node network = the actual warehouse where your stuff sits Because nodes get paid to store data, its important to verify they actually are storing it. And not taking the money while storing nothing. To verify if the files are still there, the network challenges these nodes to solve cryptographic proofs. It actively challenges these nodes randomly, so that they will be incentivized to keep the storage up and running. ---------------------- → Little more in-depth: Another key part of decentralized storage is the use of IPFS. Instead of the traditional data storage HTTP, IPFS locates content based off its unique content fingerprint. When combined with the blockchain, this allows for the protocol to retrieve the data users stored on it.

America First Enthusiast (@WOWCOOLSTORYBRA) reported@CommIT8 @NathanLands It’s still gapped, they just up-class features and updates via CDS or manual disc/drive post-scan. Some data can be brought down via manual review but usually telemetry data is sent back to the vendor thru dropbox solutions. No on-prem administrators needed.

JoshEcho (@RealJoshEcho) reportedRight several things this time: 1. Managed to fix the audio commentary. 2. No music or game audio on the vod 😡🤬 3. Now I need to work out how to un submit a streamlabs ticket. 4. Downloaded Dropbox in order to store my 90GB 😱 of stream footage. 5. There's more, a lot more. 1/6

Existential Exhortations (@existentexhorts) reportedBad idea for Google One to not offer a smooth simpatico transition for all of the TMobile billed customers they are attempting to force higher charges on. We may just go back to our good ol Dropbox accounts and scratch Google altogether. Down with the monopolies!!!

Stephan Livera (@stephanlivera) reported@Arthur_van_Pelt @BitMEXResearch @notgrubles This narrative that "bitcoin becomes dropbox" is emotive and really misleading. Run it through an AI tool and do a cost comparison. Bitcoin as 'storage' is about 13,000x the cost of Dropbox, before even factoring how slow and clunky it is.

Bitcoin Badger (@linux_badger) reported@w_s_bitcoin Bitcoin is money; it is not the next Dropbox. Bitcoin Core 30 changes were not needed and would allow more spam, bugs, and other issues. I see the reason for BIP-110: to clean up all the unnecessary changes. I would have preferred not to arrive at this point, but Core's 💩 😩
