William F.5 I've been moving my files to sync and will be canceling my Dropbox subscription before it renews in October. I've always had problems with selective sync in Dropbox and these last icon changes were the last straw. Sync isn't as fast when you have lots of files (it's great when you don't have too many), but it syncs how you want without error and **bleep** very clear what is or isn't available on your computer vs the cloud very clear. And it's cheaper. And it has better security.
I never would have gone to the effort to move away from Dropbox if they hadn't made this icon change and then refused to address user concerns with it. But I'll be better off for it and they will have one less paying customer. I'll keep a free account to use for a couple of specific things. But now that I've moved about 3/4 of my files, I won't be going back to Dropbox even if they were to finally listen to users and resolve this issue.
Good luck to the rest of you - I hope you finally get them to go back to the old system.
Has anyone tried iCloud as an alternative?
