My experience is similar to the other users. After a couple of days I still do not have stable Dropbox installations on my two laptops. On one, the files will not sync. On the other, the process of adding a small folder to be available offline causes the entire file structure to be re-downloaded and re-indexed. It is clear that this update is not ready for release. It should be paused.
Similar issue.
- still indexing 24 hrs later with no. of files pending fluctuating wildly.
- not prioritising newly added files for upload so unable to share a link with others hours after it was added which is really the core reason for using dropbox.
Hey Michael, it ended up taking me somewhere between 2-3 days in total to completely index again. It's extremely frustrating to experience but just know it should resolve itself as long as you leave your computer on and let it sync for the extended period of time.

I spent a week trying to figure out my issue with multiple chats and reinstalls and everything just to find out none of that was even the issue and somehow no-one I spoke to realized that the actual solution to my problem was enabling File Provider on my account to work with my Mac.
Dropbox Icon in top right > Profile Image > Preferences > Sync > Dropbox Folder Updates, click Learn More. Then fallow the instructions on the help page that pops up.
Fixed all my issues within minutes.
