Guys, I've noticed the bug is gone here on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS o Gnome 46 and Wayland. I just started my notebook and the icon worked flawlessly. If I encounter another bug I'll relate it here.

Hi raulgrangeiro,
Thanks for reporting this. I've checked with our engineering team, who is currently looking into why the desktop tray icon in Linux is unresponsive. I'll let you know when I have an update!

The help says that specific commands can have option, so you can see them using:
$ dropbox help <the_command_you_want>.
