I've split your post off into its own thread as it didn't relate to the topic you originally replied on.
There's no longer an easy way to locate shared folders. Dropbox, in their infinite wisdom and desire to continue removing features we rely on, have changed the Sharing page to only show shared folders that you can add to your account.
You'll need to browse your folder hierarchy and locate the shared folder yourself. The folder icon for a shared folder will have people on it. Also, if you're looking at your folders on the Dropbox website, the Members column will indicate folders that have other members in them.

I agree we need this feature back! I am a part of so many shared folders that it was enormously helpful to have a single place in Dropbox where I could view all of my shared folders (ones shared with me and ones that I initiated the share). It made managing them so much easier because the way I have my folders structured means that I have shared folders all over the place.
I get that we can use Teams and Groups to add or remove members from several shared folders, but that seems best for onboarding/offboarding permanent members of a team/department. It's just not practical for project teams when we sometimes have 100 projects a year just in our one division and most projects are completed within that year. We would end up with hundreds of inactive groups that we have to keep in case someone needs to reference the materials in Dropbox for that project.
So this is an upvote for bringing back the shared folder view!
