      <title>Switching between two linked accounts on linux seems to be missing ???</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Settings-and-Preferences/Switching-between-two-linked-accounts-on-linux-seems-to-be/m-p/576693#M10399</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;I am trying to set up on linux access to my linked business and personal account.&amp;nbsp; But the instructions for doing so in the app do not match what the app provides.&amp;nbsp; Here is a screen shot of the dropbox app when running on linux (left) and when running on windows (right):&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="dropbox.jpg" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/27550i8025A45331B4399C/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="dropbox.jpg" alt="dropbox.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The linux version does not seems to know about my linked app.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Is this a bug in the linux app or am I missing something?&amp;nbsp; If a bug, how does one report a bug to dropbox?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1517314"&gt;@azalea4va&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Unfortunately switching between linked accounts is only available on Mac and Windows:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/multiple-accounts/switch-between-accounts" target="_blank"&gt;https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/multiple-accounts/switch-between-accounts&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

There is no any technical restriction! Mostly... development laziness! Even no development actually - no any difference related to other platforms... Only few additional test steps in fact!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The frequently used cop-out, "it is not a bug, it is a feature."&amp;nbsp; There are code bugs but there also design bugs.&amp;nbsp; A house where two adjacent doors open into each other so only one can be open at a time was intentionally built to have those doors placed there, but it is a bug, a design bug.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;My organiztion has decided to move to digital, web-based storage.&amp;nbsp; There are a number of options other than dropbox: google, etc.&amp;nbsp; I argued in favor of dropbox because of the other major players, dropbox's main business is providing such storage regardless of the platform used to access that storage.&amp;nbsp; Microsoft cannot make them claim.&amp;nbsp; So if we want a changing group of people to be able to access our storage, multi-platform access is important.&amp;nbsp; And Linux is an important as one of those platforms given the power it provides.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;So yes, one can fairly classify leaving linux out as a design bug.&amp;nbsp; I am not sure I would but it is reasonable.&amp;nbsp; If this was a "conscious decision", what is the reason for the decision?&amp;nbsp; Was it "developmental laziness"?&amp;nbsp; To me, if the objective was to create a multi-platform tool and an important feature is missing from one major platform so there is not a common interface across all platforms (and that decision was due to laziness rather than technical limitations), yes maybe that is a design bug.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The main page discussing this is not explicit about the fact that this feature is not available on linux (as of today:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/multiple-accounts/switch-between-accounts" target="_blank"&gt;https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/multiple-accounts/switch-between-accounts&lt;/A&gt; ). So one wastes time linking accounts, then going through the app... then reading the docs, then googling forums.. only to find out this functionality is not present.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
