I have great clients that I can't move to throw out all of their Windows/Android "junk" because I want them to use only Apple services, so I adapt to what those clients need. If we want to serve (and make money from) clients that want to connect that way, we need to be able to use it too. Even if we could HATE it in every possible way, countless others use it.

But much like things like Skype & Zoom, Dropbox works with everything and everyone and there are far more Windows PCs out there than Macs.Īnyone like me- working Mac people- serving clients knows the value of Dropbox (in any form) being functional on our Macs. so naturally the Apple version is far superior in every possible way. I'm not completely surprised because many seem to think that iCloud and Dropbox are exactly the same. I'm surprised to see how much anti-passion there is. and for those many options to work on Macs so that we don't need to buy non-Apple stuff to use them too. And some of those do work well with everyone too. Yes, there are other options competing with Dropbox for similar services. Otherwise, Dropbox is pretty much universal such that anyone that needs to use those kind of features can use Dropbox. So I can choose to use those when I need more. Now agreed, if I had to pay for more sharable storage than I have, there are other options that cost less.

Over the years of using Dropbox, I've piled up substantial free space. but work is work and tools needed for work don't always survive Mac/macOS evolutions. I welcome progress and Silicon is fannnnnnnnnntastic.

readily upgraded to latest Windows 10 and I haven't yet checked if it can go to 11.
Since Bootcamp/Windows is also a business necessity (not because I love it but because most clients & peers use Windows, Windows files and some Windows-only apps), that 10.13.6 Mac will cover that too. For example Pixelmator is beyond terrific in so many ways but Fireworks and Photoshop has a few features it lacks that are needed sometimes. Yes, there are alternatives for many- but not all- features of both of those. The great Fireworks is dead (but still works fine on that Mac). Kludgy but necessary Dreamweaver is still not native.
especially when clients send files in those formats. I don't use those apps enough to pay Adobe the subscription fee they want but I do need them sometimes. In my case, I have another tier of vintage Mac hanging on to 10.13.6 because I don't want to lose the entire Adobe Creative Suite usage for non-subscription FREE. to keep Rosetta 2 and thus a link to the past. So there will be another "legacy" Mac- perhaps these current ones- that may need to be retained after they are deemed vintage. And I bet a few apps important to some won't either. I suspect many favorite games from a few years ago and back will probably not survive the end of Rosetta 2. Or maybe Snow Leopard Server in a virtual machine might work per an earlier suggestion in this thread, but as offered that would be Parallels Intel Mac emulation running Snow Leopard Server running Rosetta 1 which is basically emulating pre-Intel OS X A time machine back to 2010 might be easier to get working. Often it seems to be some favored games but certain apps did not survive Rosetta 1 deprecation, so it was either hang on to an old Mac or just give up on those completely. often DOWNGRADING the OS TO Snow Leopard. even people buying old Macs expressly for that purpose. Even quick glance, you'll see many from even the last few days/weeks that are trying to reinstall Snow Leopard on an old Mac. If anyone is interested, try a search for Snow Leopard and look at the threads. Yes, I'm certainly not the only one hanging on to a Snow Leopard with Rosetta 1 for one reason or another.
