It really does suck. I think the worst thing is that now it’s all bells and whistles I don’t feel like I can properly trust it not to have changed settings on my files, or accidentally shared things with people it shouldn’t be sharing things with. The complications feel like that suddenly becomes many times more likely. I don’t want another social network. I don’t want a file based media “experience”. I don’t want to have to get my head round “features”. I just want a folder that syncs across my devices without me having to do anything.

Call me a Luddite, but the thing I’ve paid Dropbox for seven years for is its “set and forget” simplicity. I’ve paid them hundreds and hundreds of dollars and I’m pretty sure they just lost me.
