A comment on The new Dropbox. Parent comment
It did. For years. But recently they added additional code to intentionally cripple it on non-ext4 systems.
Messing up working setups for existing users like that is just plain unprofessional.
I’m leaving, and this was the main reason: effectively no Linux-support.
Edit: after reading this announcement, I’m absolutely terrified. Setting up Nextcloud is now next on my to-do list.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a product pivot go this bad. I wonder how all the engineers at Dropbox feels about this.
