You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Add .dropboxignore directory to exclude folders without using selective sync
Please please please can you add a feature that allows folders to be excluded from the Dropbox account (on windows and mac). For sure I'm not the first person to request this, but I'm yet to find a g...
I'll say it one more time and then tap out before i get shot.
If you would like certain folders/files stored inside your dropbox folder (where ever that may be) you can right click on it and select 'don't sync to dropbox'. the files will no longer be synced, no copies will be kept, you will not see them appear on the web version, nor will anyone else associated with that folder or account be able to see them. They will be gone.
This process can also be easily reversed with right click command, sync to dropbox.
This works on both mac and pc. if you don't have the right click commands there are simple PowerShell and Apple/Unix code that handle the process, see this article here or if you're struggling to get it to work message me.

"I'll say it one more time and then tap out..."Really? I doubt that more than I doubt Dropbox will address the feature request.
LOL. @projectdeliverypartners And yet each time the responses are the same. Your solution may work for you, but this is not the solution the community wants.
