This morning Dropbox gave me a heart attack. I copied a folder - that had been created in MacOS - out of Dropbox then deleted it in Windows. The files I needed today were missing. Undeleted the folder, the files were there. As it turned out, "." character was used in a subfolder name, and this is invalid in Windows.
What is outrageous, that Dropbox simply ignores this, gives absolutely no notification, reports that everything is synced and OK.
Now tried different cloud storages, OneDrive gives an error notification and refuses to upload, Google Drive changes the "." to "_"without asking. Neither perfect but better than nothing.
This is not good. Do something with it. You're supposed to be the good example, don't disappoint me.
