    Used @Dropbox for sometime. Annoyingly it loses the time stamp i.e. time of modified file changes to latest even on opening so 'originality' lost ! No help over the weekend (defies logic) & complex support-team explanations ending up 'its your problem' Any better alternatives ?

    @grantbennett @obsdmd Whoa! Do you have a scenario I can try to duplicate the issue? Mine seems to be okay. I’m using Obsidian Sync and Dropbox (which I think is causing other issues), but haven’t seen Templater moving issues.

    I'm about to give up on @dropbox. I have to go looking for files, and it isn't syncing and I haven't been able to get the help I need to fix it. Any one use a different file storage app that allows them to get to their files from any computer? Thanks for your recommendations.

    [checking email] company whose services I use on a consistent basis and frankly have never had any problems with: “hey just checking in, how are we doing? :)” me: shut up dropbox how dare u speak to me

    Never mind on Dropbox - I just get a "The operation couldn't be completed" error there.

    Why does @Dropbox need 3.7GB of memory in macOS (Apple Silicon) whilst @googledrive only needs <500MB? Bit of an issue don't you think @DropboxSupport for users with 8GB of total memory?

    Found my problem. Because video editing files are about an order of magnitude larger than your input videos, I was trying to sync gigabytes of HDR video with iCloud while Dropbox was trying to sync 200 GB of Final Cut files.

    @ELLIOTTCABLE That's really terrible! 😞 Haven't used SyncThing, though I was thinking of switching to it from Dropbox😬How many machines were syncing? I'm curious what happened, when/if you figure it out. Like, did one machine lose the data and essentially sync the loss to the others, or what

    "It's hard to keep track of all [these subscriptions] & not always easy to decide whether it might come in useful at some point. Do I want a monthly subscription to Lonely Planet, in case I can travel again? Why is my family signed up to Dropbox & iCloud & should I fix it?" @FT

    @stephbaeee This is actually distressing me because what ******** happens if you accidentally submit an assignment for another class to that Dropbox??? Or like tech issues?? It’s giving extremely inconsiderate and hateful energy

  • maerlynofmiria

    @joyctilton BTW, how exactly do you get voice dream reader to actually work any more? I put audios in zip files in my voice dream folder in dropbox and VTR refuses to even play anything. It errors out on me and does everything but work.

    @CurtNaddy @AaronBellVA From a security standpoint it's even worse. The biggest issue isn't that someone could save and republish your monkeys, it's that the line of code that points to the dropbox could be code that does literally anything, because it's a trusting platform.

  • bardsong
    Shantastic (@bardsong) reported

    @awallens I'm getting that same error. It also does it in Dropbox. I thought maybe I had too many books, but now... I'm just glad it's not just me!'

    @AshishRastogi12 @BlackeKon @AmyAlexCampbell Oh no! That's terrible! They can't be recovered? (I now use Dropbox, and have all my devices connected online through them, so any update is automatically saved no matter where I am. I even have an external hard-drive too for backup)
