Dropbox has become unusable on Mac OSVentura 13.4.1
Have reinstalled multiple times, rebooted etc. Dropbox now syncs VERY slowly (days) or not at all. I made upload and download speeds unlimited, no improvement. And even when synced, Office files don't open from within Dropbox, I have to copy them out or open with Pages etc.
In short, Dropbox is now barely usable.
Still works OK on my older Macs with OS 12.
I suspect integration with new Files handling in Ventura is problem.
If this is not fixed very soon, will have to migrate completely to OneDrive.

Sorry to hear you're having issues with our desktop app, harris115.
Can you hover over the Dropbox icon in your menu bar and let us know the sync status and exact version of the app?
Keep in mind that with the new Dropbox for macOS version, sync performance may slow down to preserve battery life when your computer is on low battery, is not plugged in, or is running hot.
Could this be the case here?
Keep me posted.
