Native macOS Dropbox App vs. Maestral

I stopped using the native Dropbox app a couple years ago because it was so resource intensive. I've been using Maestral since to view and sync my Dropbox content due to lighter footprint. I have a M3 MBP with 36 GB memory, running macOS 15.1 (Sequoia).

Any feedback with use of current native Dropbox app? Happy with use and performance?

Thank you.
