My primary reason for using Dropbox initially when it first came out was because it was fully cross platform. The longer they go, the farther we get from that.
The only Linux updates I’ve seen from them have been deprecating support for things.
And I wonder how long that'll last... I chose Dropbox because of the Linux support, as I actually use all 3 of the major platforms (Windows/Mac/Linux) regularly.
If I have to leave Dropbox, I honestly don't know what I'd replace it with. It works well enough on all 3 of the platforms I use it on, that I really don't want to switch to some janky duct-taped alternative.
