Please Upvote and comment on the idea of "change them back!" here. That's the only way to get Dropbox to pay attention: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/Can-we-have-the-old-syncing-icons-back/idc-p/619917#M75732%3Futm_source=community&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=e21

Contacted them on Instagram late July and a few moments ago on Twitter.

Is it just me, or is the VOTE option gone? I wanted to send this link to fellow colleagues, but when I open this page there is no option to vote. (see screenshot if necessary).
