As soon as Linux desktop software becomes anyway profitable to develop and maintain, I’m sure companies like Dropbox will build for it. That’s not Dropbox’s problem. It doesn’t help that Linux isn’t really a single OS but a bunch of different distro’s, file systems, installers, making building a single client impossible. oh and horrible entitlement thrown in for good measure. Get that house in order and maybe it’ll be easier to build and maintain.

How is it impossible when I'm literally using Dropbox, VS Code, Datagrip, Firefox, Bitwarden, Telegram on Linux every day?

There is a huge amount of high quality cross platform apps out there, and my Linux desktop is not only fast, it's also extreamly reliable and has no Microsoft or Apple inside.

Dropbox can't make file sharing cross platform? That's frankly ridicolous.
