Allow us to show/hide sidebar items on the website
I love new features, don't get me wrong, but not at the cost of them cluttering up the UI with features I rarely (or never) use. The sidebar on the web keeps growing with no way to tame it. How about implementing a Gmail-style menu system where you can bury menu items you don't want to see, but can still access if need-be... this way the UI can be more tuned to how an individual uses it?

Yeah - I get you. Thanks again and please keep sending feedback, really appreciate it (even if I or other Dropbox employees don't reply to it, we read it here!)

Thanks. I know it's possible to hide items via a browser extension by hacking into the CSS, but... rather not have to go that route.

Oh ok. Thanks for sharing. I'll pass your feedback internally.

I have no other team members. I only have Business for the unlimited storage space.

Interesting points Eden. Being a Dropbox Business user, I assume you have other team members who may share similar feedback. Do you feel the same happens to them? (feel free to ask them to join this discussion and post their thoughts too)
Thanks again!

Well, I'm on Dropbox Business, but I use it as an individual for the sole purpose of the unlimited space... so things like:
- Personal (don't have a Personal account as there's no need)
- Team (No need for it)
- Photos (It's pretty useless as it indexes everything... 75% of which aren't what I'd consider "photos")
- Events (with the addition of Recents, I don't ever see me going back in there)
- Admin Console (I don't need to see that unless I need to go in there, which is rare)
It would be nice to be able to just clean up that sidebar to make it streamlined to a particular workflow.

Hi Eden
I can see that making sense, thanks for the suggestion! Btw, I moved your thread to 'Product Feedback' so other people can chime in with suggestions too.
Are there any specific items that you're not using at all and would like to be hidden by default?
