Moving the Dropbox folder on Linux Mint 22.2 using the Dropbox desktop app won't work
I've gone over to Linux Mint 22.2, have dropbox installed. I want to move it to my data drive...no problem. I made the move using the dropbox app, pointing it to my data drive. It did the sync fine, moved the files over, and all is good. Restart. Upon restart, I get this error message, and can't do anything about it. If I do a relink, it automatically installs the dropbox back on my OS drive and ignores everything it had just done prior the restart. How do I fix this without reinstalling it on my OS drive? Thank you.

Dropbox for Linux using up a lot of RAM
Application Affected Dropbox Device Lenovo Xiaoxin Mini PC Operating System/Browser (if using the web) Debian13 Dropbox App Version (if using the app) 237.3.5516 Question or Issue Within a few minutes of starting Dropbox, it consumes most of my machine's memory. My machine has a total of 32GB of RAM, and when it reaches about 25GB, the kernel's earlyoom is triggered, causing Dropbox to be killed. After I restart Dropbox, it is still killed within a few minutes, making it impossible for me to use it normally. I want to know if Dropbox has a feature to limit its own memory usage, or if there are any other solutions?
RAM memory usage goes through the roof
I'm using Ubuntu. Dropbix used to work fine on my system but recently something happened and when trying to sync files, the memory usage rapidly increases to max up 32 GB RAM, and then the system freezes and the Dropbox apps shut down. This happens when trying to upload a small file. What could lead to such a behavior?
Dropbox says my environment doesn't support tray icon, by it does
In the following image you can see the dropbox system tray icon top right, with the error message below it. I am using the `i3wm` on Ubuntu with `i3status` to show the icons. To me this is a bug in the dropbox software failing to detect the presence of app indicator support correctlty, on argueabley the most common custom window manager.
