You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Dropbox support for macOS 12.3
So I'm referring to https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/desktop/macos-12-monterey-support
Does this mean it will be 100% safe to upgrade to macOS 12.3 as long as I keep Smart sync to Loc...
You can never ever say its 100% safe - simply because you'd be using a Beta OS and also a Beta version of Dropbox. However, it should work well, but, be cautious of the fact it is beta at all levels.
I know previously at last minute notice Apple have changed how stuff worked in beta versions meaning stuff which used to work no longer did when updated to the next release so thats also something to be aware of.
Dropbox has had over a year to get with the program, yet still drags its feet. This isn't some tiny mom and pop software outfit with a few thousand users...it's a multinational corporation valued at over $8 billion. Not million, BILLION. How can they possibly have any excuses left at this point?
You say we are whinging, but where I come from, we have a saying: the squeaky wheel gets the grease. It is absolutely unacceptable to pay 10s of thousands of dollars, every year, for software that does not work as advertised! Now is not the time for making excuses. Nor is it time for Dropbox to "put their hand up."
They need to FIX the software and get it current, NOW. We (and many others I'm sure) are sick of the delays and broken implementation. We are looking elsewhere. Some of us have already dropped the service entirely. The longer this goes on, the more incentive there is for the rest of us to move on and leave Dropbox in the rear view. If Sharepoint wasn't such a nightmare we'd be gone already.
When can we expect a dropbox fix for 12.3 and onwards (latest 12.4).
There was promised a solution and so far nothing has happened.... clients are not happy about this, and pushing on with sharepoint/onedrive as a replacement option
yes, we are having the same issue for months w/o any ETA from Dropbox. it would force us to use a competitor as this is not a good workflow.
