Emoji filenames NOT syncing
Dropbox will not sync most of my files with emojis in their names (now over 4,000). The emojis were not put there by me -- but by people who sent me email. I know Dropbox is aware of the issue. But many other backup services don't have this problem. I love Dropbox and would hate to have to switch. But I need file names with emojis in them to sync to dropbox. So do a lot of other people. Let's fix this, please.

Can I support this wholeheartedly? I'm using a next-generation note-taking app which stores notes as markdown files (Logseq - check it out, it's amazing, but there's also Roam Research and Obsidian, which work in a similar way). I would like to use emojis for note titles. This greatly improves my organisation. I just cannot get this to work in dropbox, due to the failure to sync files with emojis in the filenames. Please implement this, Dropbox. If you do a bit of research on Logseq, Roam, and Obsidian (I think Joplin notes is also another one), you will find that these types of apps are really taking off, and many users have a preference to use emojis in filenames. If this is not implemented soon, I am going to have to consider migrating to Google Drive for my note-syncing.
