As this is an old thread returning, I’ll be closing this post.
However, in response to your queries, since RSS feeds were removed almost a year ago, it’s unlikely that they’ll make a return.
Regardless, what I can do is forward your feedback to our dev team for their awareness that some users would like to see a return of the feeds. You never know if you don't ask...[This thread is now closed. If you have a similar or new question, you can ask here.]

9 years agoThe RSS link was once found on the Events page, but with the redesign of the site it seems to have been removed. Even the link to the Events page itself is gone, though the page is still acecssible. Mention of the RSS feature was removed from the help center long ago, so the feature was likly deprecated back then and finally removed with the recent updates.

I wonder what the mechanism is that sends the desktop notification to (in my case) Windows? Would this use RSS ?

I've been chatting with dropbox about this, and I feel this is a very important feature of dropbox. It is a critical feature for many of us! We need to let dropbox know how important this feature is and we need to keep this forum going. Dropbox has made a decision to stop a feature without checking with us, their customers. We are the one's who need to let them know how important this is. So, please, let's let Dropbox know in huge numbers!
PLEASE KEEP RSS FEEDS!
