Hi there.
Dropbox backup is really cool, and far more secure than a drag and drop folder.
BUT there is a big limitation : we can’t share specific folder inside !
Obviously, it should be a read-only sharing, without modifying the integrity of the Backup.
Example : I have a big external HD with many old photos. Impossible to drag and drop the main directory, too buggy 🙂 but ok with this backup option.
I’d like to share some folders with friends…and it’s impossible. A special “read only shared link” option would be extremely convenient, and would not compromise the integrity of the backup process. If big changes in the backup are made, you can just break old shared links.
Can you add this option ?
On side subject, NTFS compatibility for MacOS would be a vital option (available on other cloud backups BTW)
In my opinion, it’s not a real idea, but just a bug 🙂
Please be aware of this problem, hope this be fixed soon.
