Please restore the ability to calculate folder size for multiple folders

You used to be able to select multiple folders and then calculate size of your selections.

This has been removed an you can only select an individual folder or move the folders you want to calculate into another folder.

There used to be ellipsis at the top where you had options which included calculate size.

 

Im not sure why such a useful feature would be removed, but please restore this feature as it is useful when you need to see the size of specific folders  when there are numerous other folders.

    Totally! This is such a time suck to have to go through each folder and calculate size. WTF?!?! This is 2024 and we have AI that can have conversations but dropbox can't have automatic size calculations for folders?
