Hi neuromante,
Is there some reason you are using beta/test application version? Did you try stable release? If not, go in general settings and make sure "Early release" there is turn off. Next, run following commands in terminal (line by line):
dropbox stop rm -rf ~/.dropbox-dist dropbox start -i
Hope this helps.

Ok, is there something strange on Dropbox startup? What is the result of:
dropbox stop; dropbox start
Some diagnostic messages appear there sometimes. Post the result. Let see it. 🤔

I've been having the same problem for probably years now. I'm using Fedora 33 - but it's been the same in 32, 31, and maybe earlier, too.
I tried turning off "Early releases" and re-installing Dropbox; didn't make a difference.
