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.

Windows 10 use a column in File Explorer (file property) for icons instead of overlay
Dropbox uses icon file overlay to show file sync status in File Explorer in Windows 10. Windows has a limit of just 15 overlay icons and different applications push other appliations out of the top ...
If possible, it would be great if Dropbox could also make use of the new status column (the one used by OneDrive in the latest version) to show the file status (download/upload progress, sync/share status etc.).
This would have the huge benefit that Dropbox no longer needs to fight over the 15 Shell icon overlays available for all applications combined. Also, it would make it easier to see the status of files that are e.g. tracked by SVN (which also adds overlays to the files)
