  • JaeJaeykim2 Jae Yeon Kim (@JaeJaeykim2) reported

    @ellliottt Thanks a lot, @ellliottt. It seems the Dropbox links are not working. Am I wrong?

  • stuz5000 SF Footgun (@stuz5000) reported

    @Dropbox (web and iOS) has the worst photo browsing interface. Not sure what they were hoping for, but it is terrible.

  • JustChillieh Frisky Penguin 🐧 (@JustChillieh) reported

    @Wolfie_Rankin You can’t ban porn. It just pops up there or can be mailed to your device how to auto download to cloud server such as Dropbox or. Google Drive. You can’t ban porn. We’ve all got it on a computer somewhere. this is just a stupid idea.

  • DenaghDesign Thomas Deeny, anti-fascist (@DenaghDesign) reported

    Wow. Jumping through a lot of hoops to get something off of Dropbox to a decade-old iPad. The actual login screen on the website won't even load with the old iOS.

  • UKHomeopathyReg Blocked Macerator (@UKHomeopathyReg) reported

    That and pay for someone to do proper server implementation than fart around with DropBox.

  • uff1ee StickyDrama (@uff1ee) reported

    @gabrielenguard Could you use something like dropbox/mega/google drive as the location for the saves? Even the free tier could hold a few thousand saves. Absolute pathing requirements might be an issue across operating systems though.

  • makeron makeron (@makeron) reported

    @DropboxSupport No error. It does this in chrome and firefox. I'm doing this from the events page, attempting to get back my deleted conflicted file.

  • fmisle Faisal Misle (@fmisle) reported

    @mattl Dropbox had a similar issue and they fixed it. Likely because it's not coded as a email hosting domain

  • olmosramiro Ramiro olmos (@olmosramiro) reported

    @SamShawDraws I work off of dropbox, it keeps old versions on its server, so if ever have a file go corrupt, or messed something up, I can always right click and select version history, and it'll show me timestamped versions that I can either download or overwrite the current version with.

  • ollshaw Ollie Shaw (@ollshaw) reported

    There's a critical @GoogleWorkspace Drive bug that affects all Mac users, has been known for >1yr, and there's never been an answer or fix from Google. It makes shared Drives unusable. Companies have migrated to Dropbox and Box solely because of it.

  • AsleepProb heya jimbo (@AsleepProb) reported

    Tried to upload a highlight video of my friends Twitch stream to Dropbox. Wasn’t working so I check Twitter to see if ppl have tweeted abt it being down. Search it, first result is a woman selling a Dropbox with her nudes on it and selling cookies made from her ****. Why god 😐

  • demorants Demorants (@demorants) reported

    @NanHayworth So if this video shows what you say, then the dropbox was monitored on video and these people were presumably caught. So what is the problem? This is an argument not to eliminate drop boxes but to make sure security measures are properly funded and implemented.

  • prons_sec be steve (@prons_sec) reported

    @CallMeWuz You’d be saving a model the trouble of gathering a customer email , sending a link from Dropbox/etc and then the communication with the customer in between. Definitely would be very helpful 🥲

  • ASMax333 Max Restou 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🟢⚪️ (@ASMax333) reported

    @TheHoopGenius Maybe just maybe if you have Dropbox you can put it on there. Might be a formatting problem too tho

  • helchose helchose🇺🇸 (@helchose) reported from Citrus Heights, California

    @quinncy I'M IN A SACRAMENTO SUBURB SO GETTING TO THE DROPBOX IS NOT A PROBLEM

  • EstateRanger Real Estate Ranger (@EstateRanger) reported

    Save all your documents for 10 years. Scan and save to cloud-like dropbox or a private server. If you get audited this stuff is highly important. The proof is on you to rebute.

  • kateleenmeehan kateleenmeehan (@kateleenmeehan) reported

    @arclarkphoto it's a terrible user experience for downloading to your phone for posting, and clicking on a Dropbox link sent through Instagram basically doesn't work at all, all of which would be tolerable if the upload quality was significantly higher but it's not

  • ClaytonBurnsPhD Clayton Burns (@ClaytonBurnsPhD) reported

    @WTH_BC @RonaldNHughes It it truly amazing how clumsy the B.C. government is. Learn info cycle: Gmail & Google or equivalents & Word, Dropbox, Twitter. Baffling that B.H. can’t even do Twitter. It causes significant morale issues when Premier deserts his post. A deserter.

  • EthanLipnik Ethan Lipnik (@EthanLipnik) reported

    Since OpenSesame is made by me, a non security researcher or cryptographer. I’m going to stick with just iCloud and user’s own server (maybe dropbox and google drive) but I will not be making my own cross platform service. Once I do launch my own service, It won’t be just me

  • kiell Andy Day (@kiell) reported

    @davebirdphoto @resophonick Yep, super basic. It's set-and-forget so it's not intended for regular access like Dropbox. It's a "my house just burned down" option ideal for those with lots of data (to a degree) and (ideally) fast internet connections.

  • pokkopit Pokko🔞 | comms FULL (@pokkopit) reported

    @FeederRock save somewhere else then drag and drop maybe? i don't have this problem cus i don't use dropbox but that seems like it'd work

  • KenzieMac130 Kenzie (@KenzieMac130) reported

    Dropbox/Drive aren't options. I could always self host and use some basic file transfer, that would be natively supported by CMake. But that involves self-hosting a public facing server... I also don't want to pay monthlies of other services because this is just a hobby project.

  • HlSteph maybe: steph (@HlSteph) reported

    if you know you’re going to have trouble keeping track of all the pictures/videos, then save them in a dropbox or send them to your email. please protect yourself because these apartment complexes have no problem trying to play/rob tf out of unsuspecting college students.

  • johnlray John Ray (@johnlray) reported

    @clairebcarroll @thebmbennett *** is probably more useful but solving a regex problem, for me, is soooo satisfying whereas solving a *** problem is like "great, now the folder is in the same place as it is in my Dropbox hierarchy"

  • andrewchen Andrew Chen 🇺🇸 (@andrewchen) reported

    For my book, I started by writing down every story and idea I had on working with companies like Uber, Dropbox, Tinder. Plus many startups I've been involved in, and put it all into one doc. Some ideas were about how products got to p/m fit. Or launch. Or scale. Or struggle

  • TheMcJohnson1 TheMcJohnson (@TheMcJohnson1) reported

    @CorinnaKopf Really this decision will only affect those that post explicit porn on their wall, which most use PPV through DMs anyway, the problem is gonna be how creators are paid for those PPVs. I assume most will use Dropbox and Snapchat premium for those moving forward.

  • vGoodFreelancer avi (a motion design account) (@vGoodFreelancer) reported

    @Arcane_Motion @conigs I've seen it used a lot for group projects to double as a server the way Dropbox or Drive File Stream might, and i find it much slower and more difficult to work with (uploading/downloading files, etc)

  • arvinforoutan Arvin Foroutan (@arvinforoutan) reported

    @JamesAllnutt94 @patrickwilson41 @DefiCentral Early-adopters deal with these issues. When it reaches Dropbox fame, no longer an issue. I'm not sure who you guys are (the people like your tweet are just crypto nerds, probably from this epic woke Telegram group we're all missing out on). So please don't include me anymore

  • BekaXDBot Beka Miller (@BekaXDBot) reported

    They really needs to be maybe not having a pink or just depending on any IT issues, you know, cloud-based, Dropbox and then
