How can I start dropbox on Ubuntu 22.10 without sudo?

Right now, I would like to install Dropbox on an Ubuntu Linux server that only has a terminal interface and lacks a graphical user interface (GUI). However, I do not have sudo privileges. In this scenario, how can I proceed with the installation of Dropbox on this server?

desktop
Install
Linux

    Hi Orpheusssan, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Do these instructions on the installation page work when doing the headless installation?

     

    This will help me to assist further!
