Your workflow is unique 👨💻 - tell us how you use Dropbox here.
Please please please can you add a feature that allows folders to be excluded from the Dropbox account (on windows and mac). For sure I'm not the first person to request this, but I'm yet to find a g...
The problem with selective sync is that the workflow is a bit backwards, where once you create the folder, you then have to go to selective sync and disable it, then delete what was uploaded via the web app.
It seems that selective sync is designed so that you have all folders uploaded to the cloud but don't want to download certain folders on certain systems. As opposed to having folders on a system that is not on the cloud at all.
Also another annoying thing is that it requires much more work if you have many projects (for example) each with the same kind of folders in them that you want to exclude. This would require that you repeat the same process I mentioned in the first paragraph for each project with no automation possible (without an unofficial extension).
Basically what we (or at least I'm assuming most of us) would like to have is a clone of the git .gitignore file or something to that effect.
