it's not gone. but it's stupidly hidden now. On Mac, if you click on the Dropbox icon in the menu bar, and then click on the blue spinning wheel at the bottom of the menu, you get the option to pause syncing for 30 minutes, an hour or until tomorrow.

Dropbox StaffHello DL8, I'm sorry to hear you're having issues with this!
You're currently using a beta version of the desktop app, denoted by xx.3.xxx. I'd suggest downgrading to the latest stable version to see if that does the trick for you.
To do this, please toggle off the "Early releases" option in your account settings and then download and install the latest stable version from this page.
Let me know if this helps!
Here on v105.4.651 Mac, pause sync is also missing, "Early releases" is off. A massive downgrade, please fix this.
