    Yes. When support for macOS 10.12 ends, the Dropbox application will no longer be able to connect to the Dropbox service.

I don't understand one thing.  DropBox on OSX 10.12 was working fine until they decided to switch it off. Would it cost too much to keep running something that has already been built?

    What can be done to get Dropbox to restore Sierra (OS 10) compatibility? It worked so well before. This makes no sense.

    I would think Dropbox would want to  keep its customer base and our continued subscription would be a fundamental goal.
