When will online-only files work on Linux?
I need to save space on my hard drive. Online-only files would be the perfect solution, but it still does not work on linux fedora.
When will we have this solution?

At the moment, Smart Sync is only available on Windows and Mac. Dropbox has made no announcement on its availability on Linux. They usually don't discuss timelines or upcoming features until they're reaady to announce them, so we likely won't know that it's coming until it's already here, assuming that it's coming at all.
Hi Dropbox, im after a clear answer here and hoping you can help not just me, but everyone who comes to this thread.
Will Dropbox ever support the online-only mode!!?? I can not for the life of me understand how this has not been implemented over the years, especially when we are paying for large storage plans, theres just no way we can fully sync to our systems, its a massive oversight.
Can we please have this brought to the front of your attention Dropbox? Can you please at least bring it up in a meeting?

We understand how frustrating this must be, and we have passed on your feedback to the team. However, we don't have any further information on this at the current time.
