Allow us to pair team and personal accounts and make files online-only on the Linux desktop app.

Many companies are currently in the process of transitioning to Linux. It is time for Dropbox to better support Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and RHEL.

Please add support for syncing both a Business and a Personal account at the same time on Linux. This includes a solution for switching between the two Accounts.

Another important missing feature is smart sync. This is essential for large businesses.

It is necessary to better support Linux in general.

If you plan to not support Linux in the future, please state so clearly and clearly document that these features are not available on Linux in the documentation.

Thanks. I always liked Dropbox as a very stable sync solution on Windows.
