Dropbox will require App Indicator support on Linux
But, for anyone on a site literally called "Hacker News", a DIY dropbox should be trivial. The fact that anybody, especially, "nerds" or "hackers" would pay good money for what is effectively an FTP server with file versioning is insane.
I am mostly jealous that I didn't build and sell dropbox and become an overnight millionaire for setting up FTP.
But seriously, modern approach, rclone[1] + "cloud" stoage (webdav, ssh, wasabi, whatever)
