Re: What to replace Dropbox Public folder with?

What to replace Dropbox Public folder with?

The Public folder was the only feature of Dropbox I use.  Now that is gone what are people replacing it with?   Any suggestions?   I've canceled my Dropbox account, but am not sure how I'm going to replace that functionality with another service.

I figured it out. I clicked on the share button , which open a form to send an email invitation. I almost closed the form since I need to share the file on a public tech support forum.

However, at the very bottom of the page , in very small font at the bottom right , there is a link labelled "share link instead" .

If you click on that , you are prompted to create a shareable link. Once you have done that, the link is copied to your clipboard.

All that , instead of putting simple and obvious "share link" option in the pull down menu. 😞
