What do you like about using Dropbox on Desktop?
I'm curious - what prompted you to download Dropbox on Desktop? What is the reason for working on desktop versus going to Dropbox on web? Do you use both? Also for those that use Web - for what reaso...

I love it on my MacAir, I love it on my iPhone, I love it on me iPad. I need everything everywhere and logging into Google for my drive there is too problematic and their software distorted anything I create using microsoft. Dropbox with an alias on my desktop has been a great option.
BUT
On my M1 desktop - my main workhorse computer - it is VERY problematic. Its unreliable, even disastrous. I use it for my business and I MUST be able to rely on it to hold my information and to give me access. (How embarassing: I had a meeting yesterday and was unable to access a PowerPoint and spreadsheet, the main topics of the meeting!). Every few months, it stops working, synchs endlessly, and can't access files that Dropbox has on the web. Worse - new files can't synch up to the web and are lost in cyber limbo forever. I've irreplaceable documents - like my taxes!- now stuck in limbo. Can't reinstall... system says I'm offline, which clearly I am not if I'm able to send this to you. NONE of the suggested fixes work... because they are Windows PC oriented. I'm really frustrated with your product and this now 3 year-long battle to keep it working.
