Hey sfsdfd, thanks for taking the time to provide additional info on your query.
Allow me to clarify that even if you update your Dropbox application to Dropbox for macOS on File Provider, you'll still have the option to have your files available offline.
Even if you don't make the choice to initially sync them as available offline, you can still manually do so afterwards, with a simple right-click choice.
The usability of the app remains the same, with the added option to switch your files to online-only, to save up hard drive space.

Let us know if you have any other questions.
