Dropbox says my environment doesn't support tray icon, by it does
In the following image you can see the dropbox system tray icon top right, with the error message below it. I am using the `i3wm` on Ubuntu with `i3status` to show the icons. To me this is a bug in the dropbox software failing to detect the presence of app indicator support correctlty, on argueabley the most common custom window manager.

Hi Team, We are 3rd party patch provider like PatchMyPC or ManageEngine. We are providing similar services to our customers.

Request to retain xembed support for Linux devices.
Dear Sir or Madam, I have been a loyal Dropbox user for over 17 years, since the product was first launched. In the past, it worked seamlessly with xembed on Linux. However, I have noticed that the icon has recently migrated to AppIndicator, which has caused some inconvenience. I would like to kindly request if it would be possible to maintain a version of Dropbox for Linux that still supports the old xembed protocol. I believe there are many Linux users who share this concern. Thank you for considering my request. Kind regards, GuanqunCan I use the Dropbox desktop app on Linux without AppIndicator?
I'm using dropbox desktop on archlinux without desktop environment. I'm using a window manager directly (in specific, awesomeWM). Recently when I start the dropbox desktop, it has a popup message saying I new version of dropbox will not work without AppIndicator, and it said my current environment doesn't support it. And I will not work after May 27. In fact I've already installed libappindicator-gtk2 and libappindicator-gtk3. I've two questions: How can I make it detect and use the installed AppIndicator? Can I stay with the current version of desktop desktop, even after May 27?Sync results under "Your Activity" show yesterday's synced files not today's.
I can see syncing occurring with the dropbox notification icon on the Mac. When I look, syncing runs. When it completes, instead of showing what was just synced, it only shows files synced the previous day under the Yesterday heading. Those synced today or moments ago ought to show up under the Today heading, but nothing ever shows there. To be clear, the recently synced files do not show up under Yesterday, either. This seems like a bug. Because dropbox sometimes takes time to get around to syncing on the desktop, I need to be able to check if it recently synced any files. This behavior of never displaying recently synced files in the Your Activity list is disappointing. The image was captured mid-day, less than 10 minutes after syncing a dozen files. Note that Yesterday heading shows files underneath. The Today heading shows none of the files just synced.Is it possible to have the directory of files visible locally, without downloading them?
I have a new computer and want all my Dropbox files online only (10TB). Is there a way to have the directory of files visible locally without downloading all files? My old desktop was set up to show all the online-only files so if I needed them I could download easily. I could just sync everything and then manually set the folders to online only but this seems like a lot of work just to get a local directory.
