On mobile, it prompts you to either “get the app” or “open app” with no way to click past. Screenshot won’t upload.

This is worse from several months ago https://lemmy.today/post/8935690

      Except the vast majority of Dropbox users pay for it.

      Edit: adjusted to how much they use it/share files.

        That’s interesting. My experience is the exact opposite. Do you have any links to information on paying Dropbox customers?

            Dropbox’s own website claims they have >700M users.

            18M paying customers is a lot (and I wouldn’t be surprised if in terms of percentage of data stored paying customers are the majority), but nowhere near a vast majority.

              If you were to look at the average cloud storage usage per user, split by free or paid, I think you would find that free users are using rather less space in total than you’d expect

              But I agree, I did some of their cute ARG stuff for extra space when they were still acting like a startup and otherwise haven’t paid them a cent.

          Free usage is still limited to 2gb unless you got a lot of referrals. It was a lot in 2008, but it’s difficult to daily use that in 2024

      Yeah except in this case this entire complaint is bullshit because somewhere there was user error. I tested it and it worked totally fine just using mobile browser. Simply offered to get app or continue using browser.
