Thanks for your reply ,
1. First i think this add on is much slower than the previous one .
Mac , pc , chrome , edge , each one of them was way slower than the
2. You Cant send more than one file , if you want send few files from different folders the add on closes and you need to do it all over again .
3. No " Recants Uploads " just like the older add on , on the new one you have only all your folders without the recent tab
4. no search option , this is super crucial , especially for heavy users .
5. i have further info about the tech support would can write further on private .

I agree 100%. I recognize the "advantage" of using the new add-on framework, but the user experience compared to the extension is much worse. I think top of my list would be the "recent" items list, which is missing from the new add-on. In general, the new add-on feels a lot less "Dropbox-y", which I suppose is part of the point of standardizing around the Gmail Add-on format.
It would have been nice if the extension stuck around until the add-on has a feature/experience-parity.

couldn't agree more , don't know exactly who and why decided to crash to zero the good old extension and to bring this one .
i have found myself working again with google drive as its way easier now compare to this recent Dropbox add on
