I don't understand why dropbox so stubborn on this thing. So many people dislike, and actually it is a really bad move for elder people and people who have color blindness. All operating systems and smartphones have option to turn on the assistant function by enlarge text size, extreme contrast, even voice assistant, for people who have needs. Dropbox goes exactly backwards; not only people who have need have problem to identify the icon, normal people also got confused.

 

So many poeple registered a user ID for this forum just to vote the green tick back, yet Dropbox has no official responce or announcement at all.

 

If they do this just to get traffic on their quiet forum, it was a great success. You win, Dropbox, now please bring the Green Tick back!
