How do I disable Sign Up pop-up when sharing links?
I cannot believe that as a paid Dropbox customer, people I share links with get a giant full screen popup pushing them to sign up for Dropbox that they have to close out before they can view the link...

Dropbox StaffHi lilro, thanks for posting today!
When sharing a link to a folder or file, it’s possible that this prompt might appear.
Currently, there isn’t a way to disable it completely when other users attempt to access the link. If you wish, you can suggest this change for others to vote on, so the dev team can look into this possibility in the future.
However, depending on your requirements, if you get this when sharing a file, you can force the browser to render or download it automatically.
Hope this helps!
Thanks Jay for the response. The forcing the browser workaround will not work for me. I need to share links to folders, not files.
I'm feeling frustrated that I have to request this as a paying customer. There should be no obnoxious upsells when I share links. Only a good user experience all the way through to the person receiving my link.
I went ahead and posted the suggestion. But shouldn't good UX be a part of Dropbox's internal process? Do I need to spell out what good UX looks like and why there shouldn't be a giant upsell blocking the contents of the link?
