    @JeriLRyan BY YOUR CHOICE? IS THIS AKIN TO, BY YOUR COMMAND? DROPBOX, IS SO SLOW, TOO. 🤔

  • bigkrosbar Gorilla Craver (@bigkrosbar) reported

    For our patrons for the VN Stronger Bonds: We are still looking for solutions for the dropbox link issue. It seems the account got flagged somehow and blocked all the links (even the previously made). So we will try with other account. Let's hope it doesn't get flagged too.

    @DropboxSupport I am not having any trouble, but wanted you to see that I got the popup again. Dropbox v147.4.4800. MacOS 12.2.1

  • uncreepy_studio ✨🌷UNCREEPY🌷✨ (@uncreepy_studio) reported

    @dead_byt But problems came up when we started using their smart sync feature. Lots of files perpetually had a grey X (especially music files, so we couldn't listen to them!). Even after uninstalling Dropbox, the Xes are still there. We are dumb & didn't know OneDrive comes for "free"...

  • dead_byt deadbyte @ VocalSharp Commissions 50% Off! (@dead_byt) reported

    Genuine question Why does anybody use Dropbox? Like, I complain about Google Drive a lot, but my experience with Dropbox is a whole other tier of terrible.

  • rdonoghue Rob Donoghue (@rdonoghue) reported

    Also, to be clear: I don't think this is going break dropbox if it's currently running on your machine. Dropbox seemed fine on the machine I'm migrating *from*, so right this minute this seems to be a problem for new dropbox installs or new files.

  • Malastair_ Joey (@Malastair_) reported

    @tynanofficial @Subtronics I’ve heard good things about Dropbox and it’s kind of the standard for cloud storage and file transfers and stuff but I use mega because it’s a little cheaper and I’ve had no problems with them

  • merlinofchaos Earl Miles (@merlinofchaos) reported

    @rdonoghue Well this could be an issue. Scrivener's main "store my manuscript in a place I can work on it with multiple devices" is through Dropbox. Hmm.

  • Crypto_Ed_NL Ed_NL (@Crypto_Ed_NL) reported

    Having problems uploading a video to YT. Same format as all previous videos. Tried different file sizes, but the upload freezes at max 5%. Chrome + Firefox. I can upload to Google Drive, dropbox and watch it but just not YT. What to do?

  • DLYNTHEBRAND Danie Lyn The Brand (@DLYNTHEBRAND) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes. I can log in via web & my MacBook. This iMac is giving me issues since the account issue we reached out about earlier.

  • roderick_jon Roderick Jon (@roderick_jon) reported

    @clewhq @Dropbox Isn't Dropbox just going to shut it down now?

  • vocalnick Not that Nick (@vocalnick) reported

    @gray Is it an “online only” Dropbox folder? I get teeny tiny previews in that scenario and it took me a while to figure out the issue…

  • _JoshuaSimpson JS 📸 (@_JoshuaSimpson) reported

    @EbenezerFTP Give dropbox a go bro, never had any problems with playback with large files etc

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @DLYNTHEBRAND Just out of curiosity, are you experiencing this issue only via the Dropbox app installed on your computer? Are you able to log into your Dropbox account via the web, for instance?

  • CarlFoxmarten Carl Foxmarten (@CarlFoxmarten) reported

    @the_gneech Years ago, I had a problem with installing Dropbox on another computer (well before they limited those on free accounts to three installs) when I moved the folder it put my Dropbox tree in, and it thought I'd deleted *everything*, and started deleting everything from my account.

  • JayinWashington JayinWashington (@JayinWashington) reported

    @GOPChairwoman So step down RINO. You are all talk, now is the time for action. Start securing our election integrity NOW! Put a camera on Every. Single. Dropbox.

  • mattasheridan Matthew Sheridan (@mattasheridan) reported

    @ArmandDoma I pay for Dropbox for my personal cloud storage. And the main reason is IT WORKS. Never had dealt with a bug, or a file failing to back up, or some random issue. Can't say the same about onedrive, gdrive, box, etc.

  • cheerfuInjh angel ✨ (@cheerfuInjh) reported

    just logged into my old dropbox and i found videos of my wwa concert 😭😭 it’s all terrible quality since i had an iPod touch but you can still hear their voices and i started crying 🥹 can’t believe i got to see ot5 at least once before zayn and the hiatus

  • treebyanyname Pineapple Fruit Salad (@treebyanyname) reported

    @Over_Revving @coomsicle @TropeCrafter Do you remember the dropbox that had almost every terrible recipe you could find? **** was wild for its time

  • dDistenfield Derek (@dDistenfield) reported

    Dear Stock Shorters... Dropbox will not open a dropbox link when they are trying to resolve an issue. Doesnt this tell us all something??

  • rdonoghue Rob Donoghue (@rdonoghue) reported

    As a technical issue, this is mostly annoying - I can still get at the stuff. But as a service issue - I pay a premium for Dropbox because I trust it 100%. iCloud has better integration, but it can be weird and unpredictable. But now I'm not sure how much I can trust dropbox.

  • segraffiti callen (@segraffiti) reported

    @dead_byt every cloud storage company is ***. Dropbox used to be good (like the desktop version having a cloud folder in windows explorer) but it’s expensive & slow. Google Drive is *** for merging all the storage from their 37362848 services into one thing. i can’t get emails now 😭

  • helenpringle helen pringle (@helenpringle) reported

    @simonewatson6 @RJMcDiarmid too old, too slow: only just emailed it. BIG FILE. can upload to dropbox if easier.

  • Davidnajera193 Azrael (@Davidnajera193) reported

    @vaultofleaks Can someone Dropbox it to me because the link not working for me

  • rdonoghue Rob Donoghue (@rdonoghue) reported

    I had *really* been betting that Dropbox would have a fix in place by the time Apple made the change they had been warning about for ages. That they haven't is making me really consider if this is the time to just move it all to iCloud.

  • Paul_Jonez Paul Jones (@Paul_Jonez) reported

    @sujayjaswa @WholeMarsBlog The problem is Dropbox is a scam.

  • TheSatya_ Satya (@TheSatya_) reported

    @USAndIndia Great initiative but the lack of available appointment slots is a part of the problem, would there be any potential increase in the number of dropbox appointments available?

  • Rdonair Richard (@Rdonair) reported

    @DropboxSupport Did incognito. Made no difference. Sometimes upload stalls at either one second or one minute left but mostly it's slow - way slower than other options and much slower than the speed my @Speedtest says is available.

  • debgotwired Deb Mukherjee 👋 (@debgotwired) reported

    @EmmaFayeS It's always super slow for me. I use Dropbox Paper to write and then transfer it back to G-docs.

  • nilomeejesrani Nilomee Jesrani (@nilomeejesrani) reported

    @debarghya_das @USAndIndia We've learned that the next lot of Dropbox appointments will be for September! Which means we can't travel outside the U.S. or go to India until we find an appointment. Why is the process so slow? WE NEED FREEDOM of mobility in and out of the U.S.!!!!
