Hi DocMolly, thanks for posting .
This behavior hasn't changed, so if you copy and paste a file with an identical name, the file should be overwritten and the shared link would remain the same since the file would be seen as edited.
Have you recently made any changes on the Mac, such as updating the OS?

Agreed. I think I am going to cancel my sub. This is unacceptable. I share a pdf with someone for work and every time I have to send them a new link. Keeping track of who I have to send the link to is just too much of a time suck. Dropbox is going to regret not caring when they realize there is a mass exodus from their platform. They also told me they have no idea what I’m talking about. They do love my subscription though. Let’s see what happens when they start losing serious money. Maybe they will care then when it’s too late.
This. And, same. It is frustrating. I'll give them this week to get back to me regarding the escalated current ticket, but if there is no update or change, then I'll have to migrate to new storage and sharing solution.
