Hey masam, thanks for posting to the Dropbox Community.

 

Here's a very detailed article documenting all the expected changes that come with Dropbox for macOS on File Provider, so you can have clear view of what to expect.

 

Of course, I'll leave this thread open, in case other users want to give you some info about their experiences.

 

Feel free to ask me anything as well.
