On mobile, it prompts you to either “get the app” or “open app” with no way to click past. Screenshot won’t upload.

When something is free, you are the product.
Except the vast majority of Dropbox users pay for it.
Edit: adjusted to how much they use it/share files.
That’s interesting. My experience is the exact opposite. Do you have any links to information on paying Dropbox customers?
It’s in the earnings reports: https://dropbox.gcs-web.com/financial-information/earnings-reports 18.16M paying customers in Q2 2024
Dropbox’s own website claims they have >700M users.
18M paying customers is a lot (and I wouldn’t be surprised if in terms of percentage of data stored paying customers are the majority), but nowhere near a vast majority.
If you were to look at the average cloud storage usage per user, split by free or paid, I think you would find that free users are using rather less space in total than you’d expect
But I agree, I did some of their cute ARG stuff for extra space when they were still acting like a startup and otherwise haven’t paid them a cent.
Free usage is still limited to 2gb unless you got a lot of referrals. It was a lot in 2008, but it’s difficult to daily use that in 2024
Unless it’s Nextcloud?
Yeah except in this case this entire complaint is bullshit because somewhere there was user error. I tested it and it worked totally fine just using mobile browser. Simply offered to get app or continue using browser.
When something is free, you are fuel in the machine that is the product.
