Hi RomuloBarretto, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Currently, the only options available to change the Dropbox app on Linux can be found here.
You can only move the Dropbox folder when using the GUI.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

Just so you know, my dropbox still successfully worked on 5 of my systems where I upgraded my Lubuntu from 24.04 to 24.10, but on one of my systems that had Kubuntu 24.04 and I upgraded to Kubuntu 24.10, dropbox no longer runs and will no longer install from the newest deb file on the website. Keep getting error:
sudo gdebi dropbox_2024.04.17_amd64.deb
