Hi all,
Native Apple silicon support is now fully available. All users with Apple silicon devices will receive the native version of Dropbox automatically. If you would like to update your device manually, you can do so by clicking on the latest Stable Build and downloading the Offline Installer (Apple Silicon) file. For more information, visit the Dropbox Help Center.If you need assistance with anything else, please feel free to create a new thread and our community team will be happy to assist.
i was just thinking about renewing my sub, and now that i see they don't have native m1 support, i won't be. Onedrive does not either, and it's slow as heck. Google drive does, so I may just put my stuff there.

Google drive also has no native version for Apple Silicon as far as I know of. Onedrive will be coming with a native version, but to be honest OneDrive on Apple Silicon does not behave well on my machine. Dropbox al least works without problems on my Apple Silicon device. The only service I know that has a native Apple Silicon version is Sync.com. The issue I have with Sync.com is that the iOS app is slow. On the desktop Sync.com seems to performs OK, it also has the benefit of being end-to-end encrypted.
Google drive on my m1 shows Apple as the type.
