Re: Dropbox location change on MacOS 12.6
So, it’s been REALLY quiet in here regarding this issue. Is someone from Dropbox going to step in to answer this very simple question? Is this permanent or not. I’m ready to leave since I’m getting no answer or explanation to what’s going on. This is just not good enough. Embarrassing to be honest…

Well, that's the end of me using Dropbox after 12 years. I need all my files on my 2TB SSD. I can't even make a total offline backup of my Dropbox anymore, this is bad security.
There's lots of other problems too. I can't seem to get Calculate Folder Sizes in the Finder anymore - Apple must restrict this in 'cloudstorage' area, even with a Get Info I can't see the sizes of folders - whether offline or online. Not useful when organising offline/online folders.
Yeah, Apple are controlling d*ckheads who constantly make my life a misery in the name of 'security' even though we all know it's in the name of 'we want you totally locked into our ecosystem like on the ipad'.` How dare they tell me where my data or my apps (Dropbox) should be stored. I should have gone with a PC that'll teach me.
But the fact that OneDrive seemed to have a work-round shows that Dropbox don't really care about Mac users anyway.
So OneDrive it is. Annoying though. I much preferred Dropbox, but they are no good to me now.It just gets better and better, this now happens about twice a day.
