- 6 years agoHey again miguelfp,Unfortunately the redesigned Dropbox desktop tray isn’t available on Linux. The new Dropbox desktop app is indeed currently only available on supported Windows and Mac OS.I understand this isn’t exactly the answer you were looking for. As you’ve expressed your interest in having the new desktop app available on Linux systems too, I’ve passed your comments along to our dev team for review in future improvements.If you have any other questions, please let me know - Cheers!

I am on v76.3.120, which a search shows was released in the last few days. That being said, it is still the same app as before. Nothing released for Linux (as far as I can tell) and yes, I am opted into the Beta.

Hey peeps!
Thanks for your updates here, I’ll be keeping an eye out for any possible updates we may receive of this and ensure to let you know here, should there be any changes. As of now though, the new desktop app interface isn’t available for Linux OS on the stable or beta versions.
I’ve nudged our dev team again with your updates here and let them know of your interest of having this feature.
Cheers!

Hi,
I would also like to second the wish for a Linux version of the desktop app! Please let us know if there are ny updates :)
Thanks!

I think the fair and responsible thing to do is to:
- Mention explicitly that there is no "new desktop experience" for linux now. The same for "spaces" etc.
- Remove all the irrelevant promos regarding this nonexistent service from linux users.
- If indeed these new services are useful (not just empty hot air), then speed up the creation of the linux version.
Yours, AY

Unfortunately, we are no longer following the same direction. Good luck with your service and thanks for all the fish.
