[Solved, Ubuntu 22.04] Dropbox is always "Connecting..."
Hi, Dropbox tray icon says it is "Connecting..." forever. I cannot see the list of the latest modified files as it used to show or use the tray, actually. I am using Linux Ubuntu 22.04 ...
Hey folks,
I found an extension that solves this issue for me. It worked immediately as soon as I installed the extension. No reboot or logout was required.
I just have to point out I am using Ubuntu 22.04.

I was and still also using this extension to display old tray icons. Maybe it is also important.

Now I am happy again, here is the proof to make you happy too.
Mod note:
Please note that Dropbox is only supported on vanilla builds of Ubuntu 14.04 or later, or Fedora 21 or later.
We don't officially support forks or variants of these operating systems, or other flavors of Linux at this time.
You can learn more about our supported distros for Linux here.
Here is the problem: I already went this route multiple times before, submitting all the requested information to no avail. This is why I gave up on Dropbox and moved on.
