After moving to this beta build on my Intel Mac (waiting to update on my Apple silicon M1), the ~/Dropbox folder is now gone. Good to see that Dropbox appears to be using more of Apple's file provider work, and Dropbox does show up in the Finder sidebar. It appears the actual files are now in ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox.
However, I really do need to have a ~/Dropbox folder. I use Dropbox very often with scripts that expect this folder. I can create an alias or similar, but would much prefer Dropbox (that basically got its name for creating this folder) to manage this for me.
Is this a known issue? Really would be nice to get something like release notes for something like this.
Unrelated, but also noticed the desktop app appears to be completely missing in this update.
