Dropbox using high amount of RAM / memory
This is an issue for Dropbox running macOS Mojave 10.14.6. I've been using Dropbox for many years but as a really light user. I probably have around 200 data files, sizes ranging from a few bytes to ...

Thanks so much for keeping me in the loop here gumdrops; I appreciate it.
I'm sorry I wasn't aware that you had more than 3 devices linked on your account. As you know, we changed the device limit for Dropbox Basic users back in March 2019. Unfortunately this means that if you were exceeding the maximum of 3 devices linked, you'd need to reduce the total number of devices on your account to below 3 to re-link your account through the desktop app upon re-installing.
As for your other concern, I'd suggest upvoting the relevant idea to show your interest.
Feel free to come back to me with any questions you may have in the future; I'll be happy to follow up.

Thanks for your reply Walter.
That's all right. I wasn't aware of the changes, I didn't let you know of my devices, and that wasn't your intention.
Yeah, I'll do that. I wanna add my voice to that thread. I'm sure many would prefer a cheaper option.
Thanks for your help.
Best wishes,
