MacOS 13.0 Ventura, and Dropbox follows OneDrive in forcing the folder on the system drive
With Monterey, OneDrive implemented the new apis from Apple for online syncing that demanded its main location be a specific folder on the system drive. 8 months later, the MacOS community section of...
Wow Michael S.197 what performance! I must apologize for the dissent of myself and others! The audacity! To ask questions! Looking for help? My god, what were we thinking?
Thank you for the humiliation and shame. You are so right to go after users like me, personally, who dared to question your conclusions in any way shape or form. The best way to prove your argument is to admonish your dissenters. Good show.
And for me to ask questions not even remotely related to your external drive solution, like 3rd party syncing? I deserve 50 lashes for my impudence!
I've only been involved in managing servers and data while art directing massive multimedia projects for 35 years. How dare I have observations, needs and concerns that differ from yours, right? Blasphemy!
There's no possibility that I, or anyone else, might have seen different data from a different perspective and have a different experience and understanding and needs. Perish the thought!
You should totally continue ignore my actual questions, my alternate needs, my contrasting data and my version numbers in my appeal for help - in which I clearly asked where I may have been wrong in my assumptions (I'm a freaking monster!).
It's totally cool for you to ignore my questions about 3rd party links, because that's not your problem, so who cares? Case closed!
Please do continue to vilify us using whatever filter you choose to see through and shame us over not agreeing with you automatically, just because you said so. We completely deserve your infantilization and bile.
I can't wait to see the scores of happy, satisfied users who reply in agreement that the entire Dropbox on macOS problem is finally over, all thanks to you!
All hail Michael S! The S is for Solver!
Well, if you want help, then ask for it directly from Dropbox staff. Seems more practical.
I can't comment on your third-party syncing issue because I don't use that. If you want to find out about 3rd party applications, then why not trial the method? And report to the community?
You argued that I'm "wrong" to report that something currently works for me, on a later version than yours. I suspect what you meant to say was "Although it may currently work for him, this loophole may be reverted in the future." I made no claim about the future, simply about the present version that I'm using. Yes, what Dropbox plans is unclear, and whether they will close out this loophole is not clear.
